"This Nursing Sister has shown exceptional devotion to duty over a long period. At the time of the fire in the Knights of Columbia Hostel, St. John's, Newfoundland, in December 1941, she was in charge of the patients, rendering excellent and untiring services to the many difficult burn cases. The high morale of the patients was maintained to a marked degree by her consistent good humour and optimistic manner."
