A Gift to Remember
by Clarence A. Boon
This is the story of a young boy born in South Central Ontario. His folks, Len and Betty Murray, were very hard up, and Jan had never receive a very expensive Christmas or Birthday present, so when his father gave him a scrawny colt for his Birthday, Jan fed and cared for him, and he grew to be his pride and joy.
A Mortgage Sale, a few years later, saw his colt sold along with everything else. As soon as Jan was old enough to quit school, he went looking for his horse. This took him to the Upper Ottawa Valley, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and even into the United States.
Jan's whole life was changed, as well as the life of his family, when a stranger picked him up along the road. Was it the right thing for Jan to do, to use the stranger's dead son's name, just because his initials were the same, J.M.? In return, Jan brought happiness and companionship to this lonely widowed man.--pg. 2 Foreword
