Well gang, here we are again, another visitation.  This one is at the Shriner's Children's Hospital in St. Louis.  Joe Kalicki, our Junior Ambassador for this leg (no pun intended) does the introductions and opens the speaking.  He resists but does quite well when put on the spot.  His cherry cheeks brighten and his sweetness begins to flow like the sugar from a lollipop.

 

 

 

 

As they listen attentively and respectfully to each other, the group takes turns sharing their perspectives and experiences of the trip.

 

 

 

 

 

Jamal Maccou, from the St. Louis area, is the next Jr. Ambassador for the trip.  His proud mother, Rhonda, looks on as Joe uses Jamal for a leaning post.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As Jamal looks on, Joe demonstrates his professional technique at poster signing and explains how nice the adults have been to him.  Kip has done this before and is able to use the crayons himself without help.  The little girl picking up the poster is quite a fireball and an excellent basketball player.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Renee' and Linda converse with a patient and present him with autographed posters while Richard amuses another patient and the attendant staff.

  

 

 

 

 

 
 

The group would like to thank the Shriner's Childrens Hospital in Saint Louis, MO, for the privilege and opportunity to visit their facility, patients, and staff.  You are doing a wonderful thing for the needy children of this world.  This was our last visitation in which Joe would be involved.  He will now return to Florida where his parents will attempt to return him to the former sweet, quiet, well-behaved self that he was prior to taking this trip.  Joe, Sharon, and Dan, it was a treat to get to know you and to travel with all of you.  Good Luck!
