Rev. F.C. Wissenbach (1887-1952) was Rector for the Pendleton Episcopal Church of the Redeemer, 1935-1942. His passion for painting was well-known, painting in oil and watercolor. In 1938, local businessman Donald Robinson recruited 12 people to each sponsor a painting. The paintings of the tribal leaders were on display at the Vert Clubroom and were often used as cover art for the many Happy Canyon Pageant programs.
