mothers love is a blessing followed by a stepdance

this is alex oakley. he is in the olympic hall of fame in ottawa as a racewalker for canada he was in 5 olympics between 1956 & 1975. took the gold medal back to canada in the 1963 pan am games. marie hoskins was one of my mothers best friends growing up in st. john's newfoundland. i love her so much that i adopted her as my auntie marie. marie was having a bit of a problem step dancing on the rug and went to get a different pair of shoes at the end there.
