1913 - Pedersen then returned to the Elvira for whaling and trading in the arctic in 1913. In August 1913, the Elvira was frozen in and damaged by ice near Icy Reef west of Demarcation Point on Alaska's arctic coast (east of Kaktovik, Alaska and west of the Canadian border). The ship was further damaged by a storm to the point that Pedersen and her crew were forced to abandon her and seek refuge aboard the Belvedere. Pedersen and Olaf Swenson of the Belvedere traveled overland by foot and dogsled to Fairbanks to carry news and arrange relief supplies for the crews on the Belvedere. Sources differ on whether Pederson was owner as well as captain of the Elvira.

1914 - Pedersen then signed on as captain of the whaling and trading ship Herman for the H. Liebes Company of San Francisco. The 1914 voyage of the Herman was the subject of a motion picture by Dr. L. Lawrence, a videotape copy of which is held by the University of Alaska. In the course of this voyage, the Herman picked up Captain Robert Bartlett at Emma Harbor, Siberia and transported him to St. Michael, Alaska where Bartlett transmitted to Ottawa the news that the Karluk had been crushed in the ice and the survivors were marooned on Wrangel Island off the northern coast of Siberia.

Obituaries Aviva J. Stinson Longtime Alaska resident Aviva J. Stinson, 72, died Friday, Nov. 4, 2005, of cancer at the Providence Valdez Extended Care Center in Valdez. Aviva was born March 21, 1933, in Jerusalem, Israel. Her name means "spring" in Hebrew and she was full of life. Her parents, Solomon and Sarah Ostrovsky, were missionaries in Israel and lived primarily in Herzliya and Tel Aviv. In 1951, Aviva moved to England to continue her education and attended nursing school in Kent. It was there she met her future husband, Larry, who was stationed there with the U.S. Air Force. After earning her nursing certification and her wedding in January 1956, Aviva moved with her new husband to his assignment near Casablanca, Morocco, where her first child was born. She worked as a nurse in Morocco and then arrived in the United States for the first time in April 1957 when her husband was assigned to West Palm Beach, Fla.

In 1958, the family moved to Illinois where Aviva attended nursing school to recertify her license and then worked for several years at Mercy Hospital and Care Clinic. She earned her citizenship in 1964 and was proud to be an American. The family moved to Fairbanks in 1975, where Aviva resided until her diagnosis this past September. She earned her bachelor's degree from the University of Alaska Anchorage in nursing, and her master's degree from the University of Washington. She became an advanced nurse practitioner and enjoyed her own private practice in Fairbanks as a psychiatric nurse for many years. In 1997, the Alaska Nurses Association recognized her for her outstanding contributions to nursing. Even after her retirement, Aviva assisted at her son's practice, the Advanced Medical Centers of Alaska in Fairbanks. Aviva said working with patients was the greatest accomplishment of her life besides raising her family. Aviva loved to travel and had seen a good part of the world. She was active in the Quota Club and HIPOW and was an avid collector of Alaska art. Her family wrote: "Aviva was unforgettable, generous and passionate.
