Artistic touch

Original Toronto Star caption: Artistic touch: Even though Mary Thornton is 69; she has no qualms about putting in 15-hour days to create puppets and costumes for her renowned Famous People Players. Thomton has led a varied life; working at everything from dressmaking to a stint in opera. And she hasn't lost her zest of life. God gave us a body and we've got to use it to the very end; she says.
