Mercedes leaves a large number of other relatives and dear friends to hold close memories of a beautiful, strong, resilient woman, who lived her life dedicated to her family, friends and community. She began and ended her life within a 25km radius, yet her accomplishments were beyond measure. She managed a local store, a pharmacy and her household with her lifelong mantra “can’t is a cowardly word.”
The family extends gratitude to the dedicated health care professionals at the St. Clare Mercy and Burin Hospitals and a special thank you to the US Memorial Health Care staff in St. Lawrence.
