WOMEN AND SPIRIT

One of the reasons we wanted to get to Dubuque first, was to go to the River Museum and see the traveling exhibit about the nuns in America.



The whole exhibit was very interesting, but we were especially interested in the part about my cousin, Mother Alfred Moes (my maiden name). This is her part. That's her in the small picture.
This tells about her. We can thank her for St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester and the beginning of the Mayo Clinic.


It was very nice to see the sisters get recognized for all their accomplishments, especially the nurses and teachers. This is just a small part of the exhibit.
