Remembering Alaska's visit from the Pope, 40 years later

On Feb. 26, we commemorate the 40th anniversary of Pope John Paul II’s visit to Anchorage. Here is an excerpt about that event from my mother’s 1981 Christmas letter:
“
About the middle of January, I received a call from Archbishop Hurley asking me to be the program director for the anticipated visit of Pope John Paul II to Anchorage. I had worked in the program department at NBC Hollywood in the 1940s, but believe me, it did not prepare me for this job. Within six weeks, our committee put together an outdoor Mass (in February, yet), a tremendously complex security system, transportation from outlying areas to the inner city, hospitality, selection of ecumenical leaders and handicapped persons who would meet the Pope, invitations to dignitaries all over the United States (including three cardinals, dozens of bishops and hundreds of priests), arrangements for 250 members of the world press, and entertainment at three stage locations outdoors for those who would be in place as early as the night before. I supervised such diverse groups as a 130-person choral group, Russian Orthodox singers, Polish, Spanish and Native dancers and an Eskimo blanket toss... oh yes, even a sled dog ride for the Pope. (There were so many who wanted to do this that I had to toss a coin between the two finalists.) In addition to the above, there were the physical facilities, such as building a $50,000 altar-stage, two sound systems and relays to the satellite. RCA Alascom bought much new equipment, and it was such a communications triumph for them that they made a movie of their preparation process. All went without a flaw, and our 200-person choir sang so well the Pope invited them to St. Peter’s — which, believe it or not, they will do in March (1982). Our final triumph occurred when the committee received a Gold Pan award from the Chamber of Commerce for one of the most flawless performances ever presented to Anchorage. There were 46,000 people at Mass, the largest single gathering ever for Alaska.”
