ca. 1936. Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia pose on the steps of St. Joseph Hospital which had been established by their order in 1891. This was Tacoma's first Catholic hospital. In keeping with the values of St. Francis of Assisi, medical services were provided to all people, regardless of race, religion or financial means. (www.fhshealth.org--article)
