"Little Brothers" Jason Bagnel 17 (left) of Bowmanville and Mark Sausedo 10 (right) of Newcastle share a family moment with their Big Brother, 'Richard Horton and his son Christopher. When you talk about comnpas- sion, you are talking about Big Brothers. When you talk about car- îng, and precious time given in the most unselfish of ways, you are talking about Big Brothers, and the very essence of its being... 'Seing a Big Brother is one of ihe miost rewarding experiences in my life," said Richard Horton of Bowmanville, who has been a Big Brother for ten years. "Sharing in the lives of these- boys has enriched my own life,- Horton added. "Seeing Jason grow up over the past few years has been terrific. My own two children love having both little brothers around. 1 believe Jason and Mark have given me somethimg spectal, and 1 wii ne a better parent for it." Richard Horton is an Air Canada pilot and because of his unusual schedule, his littie brothers have to fit into his lifestyle. When together they enjoy skating, playing hockey, or just spending time at the Horton home. Jason's mnother has seen her son grow into a fine young man -even helping out around the hou se. The younger Mark, has been a little brother for about one year, and judging by his perpetual smiling face, is loving it! 11 Horton explains, -1 have always been interested in somehow-getting involved in the community or wvith youngsters. After looking into several fields, 1 know that being a Big Broth.er surpasses them ail. 1 recommend it - from the heart." Big Brothers is a United Way Agency, operating independently within the community. A Big Brother offers the friend- ship of a buddy or a big brother to a boy who has no permanent father figure in his lite... Someone perhaps who can share in sports, hobbies or simply spend time. Both the potential Big and Little Brothers are interviewed in depth, then eventually "matched" with the mosi appropriate partner. The ultimate decision in matching the Little Brother is left up to his mother. P lease cail your local Big Brothers' office for any informa- tion whatsoever.
