I am sending you a picture of my mother, Mercedes Young from Stephenville Crossing. She is 88 years young, mother of 12 children, whose energy is boundless. She has knitted one thousand finger puppets for the Janeway children's hospital in St. John's. There isn't anything she can't do; from cooking, taking care of her house, knitting, sewing for the community, gardening, carpentry, fishing, world traveller and countless other things. She has also been an avid reader of the Downhome magazine since the first issue.   Submitted By:
