Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch, author of a series of books based on the
true story of a group of Armenian orphans called The Georgetown Boys,
held a book signing recently at the Freckled Lion bookstore for her
latest release, Call Me Aram. One of the first visitors to have his
book signed was local resident Philippe Mesly, a Grade 10 student
who played the lead role of Aram in a play that played to sold-out
performances in Georgetown. Call Me Aram tells the story of how the
orphans came to Canada in the 1920s and were raised at facilities in
Cedarvale Park, at one point revolting against their adult guardians
for having given them English names.
