HEROES OF THE WILDERNESS
Driving through Glennallen these
days, one can’t helo looking back■just a
“few short years and making a mental com
parison. Not so long ago there was no ; ■
hospital, church, high school, R.E.A.,
nor. half-a-dozen ;h.U-S.inesses that have
sprung up and grown in the past few years
The awakening of this area can pro
bably he credited to Rev. Vincent Joy,
Chester Schneider, M.D. and James P'inneo,
M.D. with the help of their .followers &
workers these men went in, smarted their
church and rendered their medical ser
vices to their community long before
they had the beautiful buildings in which
they presently .work. They treated the
ills of their neighbors and helped with
their spiritual guidance, which in many
instances makes the difference between
saving and losing a patient.
They have worked long and hard and
unselfishly with a staff of mfrses that
were as devoted to their cause as the

doctors and minister they helped.
Whether one was Protestant, Catholic,
Hebrew, or non-beleiver, all could go to
them for aid.,
Before the arrival of our own fine
doctor, they kept the city of Valdez under
their care, with the aid "of one or two
nurses who lived here, There is more than
one person within Valdez who owes a debt of
gratitude to -these find people for their
very lives and good health.
• All has not been easy for these folks,
They have had personal grief, financial,
reverses, unjust criticism, and obvious •
stumbling blocks put in their way. Always
they have risen above this, and-in many'
instances, cared for their severest critics
as tenderly as they would a member of their
own faith, \
One can*t help wondering if the surge
of growth and prosperity would have come
into being if it hadn*t been for the st
rong determination of Vincent Joy to cre
ate the church and hospital for his fol
lowers in the place he chose.
It is gratifying to sec that.long
last the nurses have decent quarters,- the
beautiful log church is being enlarged, Sr.
plans are underway to increase the size of
the. hospital.
Well donel Rev. Joy, Drs. Schneider
and Pinneo, as* well as to all the nurses
and other workers. Alaska should he, and
is, proud of you and there are still those
of us in Valdez who remember the years you
served this community with the love and
compassion you have in your heart for all
mankind. The Editor-Valdez Breeze
