My father's brother and sister were chosen as my godparents. Even without that designation they would have been part of my life. When I was young and dad was in college his brother was at the same college so I saw him pretty regularly. Later we moved to the town where my aunt lived while my uncle moved a state away. I spent a lot of time with her.
In between we were always together at the grandparents' home for holidays. That they were my godparents didn't really come into play. I don't know if they spent much time thinking about it. I know I didn't. They were the aunt and uncle who were close due to geography since the other side of the family was a thousand miles away.
The only time I recall it being brought up at all was at my high school graduation when a point was made to snap a picture of me with one of them on either side. I'm pretty sure that was grandma's idea.
