A heroic example of the pioneer spirit and commitment of northern doctors, she has devoted her life to ministering to the Indians, Metis and immigrants of northwestern Alberta. Undaunted by the expansiveness of her territory, the receipt of payment in barter, the primitive transportation or the inadequate medical facilities and equipment, she has served Canadians with great dedication, skill and sacrifice.
