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.

Great quality tuxedo
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
This tuxedo is amazing size was perfect, comfortable and very well made. This tuxedo quality is so above average that it is better than ones I have rented . It was also cheaper in price than a rental. If you need a tuxedo for a formal event this is what you are looking for. If you want to look better then any one else at a non formal event this is the tuxedo you want ..

Perfect suit for boys
Color: Navy Blue, Size: 12 Years, Color: Navy Blue, Size: 12 Years
So thankful for this! This suit was perfect! My son wore this all night playing and the durability of this fabric is on another level. Wasn't too thick, looked really nice, and fabric was really soft. It also blended really well with the suits from Mens Warehouse.

Perfect!
Color: Royal Blue, Size: 12 Years, Color: Royal Blue, Size: 12 Years
I was nervous about purchasing something like this at the last minute. But based on the previous reviews I decided to take a chance. The suit is nice and the material feels really good. Not thin or cheap at all. My son looked so handsome and grown up. He’s on the slim side so he does have extra room but I don’t mind it because he can definitely grow into it. I did purchase a separate tie because I wanted a pattern to complement the blue. I’d definitely purchase again!
