About 2 weeks ago my mother's youngest brother died. He was one of my favourite 
uncles. At the funeral many stories were told of my uncle and this one happened when I 
was a baby so I did not hear of it until just before he died.

When I was a baby, my uncle Clare accompanied my parents on a trip to see my father's 
family in New Brunswick. He was about 17 at the time. When he got down there he really 
hit it off with my father's youngest brother, Uncle Bubby as we called him who was 
about 11 at the time. Anyway, I guess my uncle Clare noticed that my father's family 
was quite poor and my uncle Bubby was about the only kid without a bicycle.

When my Uncle Clare got back to Hamilton, he immmediately packed up his bicycle and 
shipped it to New Brunswick. To this day my Uncle Bubby said it was the best present 
he ever received.
