Original Toronto Star caption: Christmas dream come true for Bob Overall; right; as he hugs 17-month-old Jeremy; son of his long-lost sister; Gwenneth Spencer; left. Looking on are Gwenneth's husband; Jim; and their other son; Jason; 4. The sister and brother were reunited more than 25 years after they were placed in the care of a children's aid society. Bob was shuffled round to no fewer than nine different foster homes. Finding Gwenneth I feel as if a blanket had been lifted; a blanket of curiosity; Bob says. Now I know I belong.
