Thanks to Ms. Kephart's third grade class at Steadley Elementary in Carthage,
MO for decorating the ornaments to hang on our First Tree of Remembrance at the
Northpark Mall in Joplin.
Each ornament has an item listed from our
Holiday Wish List that can be purchased and brought to the Shelter for the
animals this holiday season.
(L-R) Tabetha Meadows, Courtney Riggs, Karen Aquino and Connie
Andrews recite the names of pets honored at the Joplin Humane Society's First
Annual Tree of Remembrance.
The event took place on December 5, 2009 near JC Penney at the Northpark Mall. Karen Aquino, the Executive Director, read poetry that touched the hearts of all who
were in attendance.
About $1,300 was collected from the families' that
reflected on the important roles their dogs and cats have
played in their lives.
