Spreading smiles to those in need
Dale Maljevac, R.N., a Life Lion Critical Care Transport nurse and Public Relations and Outreach Coordinator, has always wanted to share his smile and spread smiles to those around him. He finally found the perfect opportunity to share his enthusiasm and give back to the community in early November 2009.
This great opportunity came when he was contacted by a former exchange student he and his wife hosted back in 1997. Marian Buzo, whom he calls his Paraguayan daughter, became a coordinator for mission trips to Paraguay with Operation Smile. The organization gives free reconstructive surgery to children who suffer from cleft lips, cleft palates, and other facial deformities. Maljevac will never forget what Marian said to him, “Dad, you have to come.”
