Sphinx Noble Makes Major Contribution

Noble Robert Sinibaldi of Sphinx Shrine and his wife Phyllis recently made a $40,000 donation to the Shriners Hospital for Children in Springfield, Mass.

The gift, in memory of their son, Steven Sinibaldi, will be used for the procurement of a 3-D body Scanner being developed at the hospital.  It will be utilized by the medical staff at Springfield to improve their ability to diagnose and determine remedial surgical procedures for children with spinal injuries and diseases.

A plaque in honor of this generous contribution was presented to Noble Sinibaldi and his Lady, Phyllis, at the September 20, 2007 hospital Board of Directors meeting. 

Pictured in the photo below, from left to right: Hospital Administrator Mark Niederpruem, Phillis Sinibaldi, Robert Sinibaldi and Phillip Thomas, Chairman of the Springfield Hospital Board of Directors.
