Thanks to Ken Bobbitt for getting the new garage building

Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy
If you’ve been to the Shriners Hospitals for Children —
Greenville’s KidZone, there’s no doubt you’ve met their long
term patients Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy. Since 1998,
the six-foot tall pair has been seated in the KidZone waiting
to play with any patients who come their way. Raggedy Ann
and Andy were handmade and donated by Janice Fox (wife
of NE Dekalb club president Gordon Fox) in honor of her
great niece, Ansley Powell. Ansley had cerebral palsy
among other health issues but was never a patient at this
hospital. Following Ansley’s passing earlier this year, Janice
wanted to make another donation to the hospital. This
time, she made mini-sized Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls.
The next time you are at Shriners Hospitals for Children —
Greenville, stop by the KidZone to see the new dolls sitting
right next to the originals.
