Year-Round Crochet Hero Spreads Warmth Across Lorain
Josephine Gallo, 81, of Lorain, crochets hats and mittens year round for needy children. In the past year she made over 500 sets distributed via Lorain County Department of Human Services and local food baskets to families in Sheffield, Sheffield Lake, Avon and Avon Lake. Through RSVP and the Lorain Community Senior Center she funds and donates her time, supplies provided by RSVP, with two hours per hat or pair of mittens. She notes lifelong crocheting since her mother taught her, enjoys making afghans for her family, and remains active after retirement in 1972.
