About the Author

Gebbie graduated in medicine from the University of Glasgow. After working in several hospitals, he joined the Royal Navy and following his discharge he married a beautiful nurse named Anne. Gebbie and Anne had a son, born in Glasgow, and the three of them emigrated to Canada.

With a year contract from the Newfoundland government, Gebbie practiced as a G.P. in a small Out Port just on the edge of civilization. While there he had a daughter, born in Gander.

His next home was Brampton, Ontario, a small town twenty-five miles from Toronto. After six years there and two more girls added to the Gebbie family, he decided to specialize in anesthesia. He did his training for three years and then worked at one of Toronto's University teaching hospitals.The next move was to Cincinnati where Gebbie worked for twenty years until retiring to Naples, Florida. Unfortunately, he and his wife lost their son at age fifty of heart disease and one of our girls to breast cancer at age forty. Gebbie’s wife, Anne, passed away four years ago.

Accurate size, okay quality

PRO: Size is accurate. Color is nice. Quality is not too bad especially for the price. Nephew seems to like it :) CON: Quality can be better. The hood is very light and thin but other than that it’s good for the price.

Lightweight sweatshirt.
Size: 4T, Color: White
Used for tie dye. Took the color well. Because it is a lighter weight it did not use as much dye. Sending to the Granddaughters.

Super cute and soft!
Size: 3T, Color: Light Mauve
Daughter fits very well in this pink pullover sweater. It’s true to size very pleased with the make of the sweater, it’s made very well very soft, is medium thickness and is warm for my daughter to wear in NY’s cool fall weather and now winter with a coat of course. Also is not to thick where wearing a coat could be an issue. Great value for your money in the product you are getting it washes well and stains come out easily sometimes with a little help. Great buy must have!
