Q: Do you have a memory of a favorite gift growing up?

A: I have one that I remember the most, so I guess that makes it my favorite. When my dad was studying to get his doctorate, he had to take about eight months off without pay to do a residency, so we were broke. He didn’t make any money to start with. The Christmas I remember the most, my oldest brother, Dick, was in high school at Berea, and he got a Berea Braves pin. Probably cost 75 cents or something back then. My brother Dave got a book of the 50 states which he already had. And I got a pair of kids’ football pants that I’m sure my dad was given by a sporting goods dealer. I remember that more than anything else because we were OK with that, because we knew we were sacrificing for the family. All the other Christmases where there were umpteen boxes, I hardly remember them

There is definitely a lesson in there!
