Mangalore: 6 March 2025 | The gentle hands that once held her children close, the warm hug that comforted her loved ones, and the quiet strength that upheld an entire family; these are the gifts Mother Mercy Yesudasan leaves behind as she bids farewell to this world. At the age of 85, she has left for her final journey, leaving her legacy of love, warmth, kindness, and unshakable devotion to love and compassion towards humanity. We salute her dignified tenderness.
Mother Mercy was the wife to the legendary cartoonist C.J. Yesudasan, Mother of Sanu, Sethu, and Suku. She was the anchor of their house and the one who spread joy everywhere all the times. She was the strength and the heart of their home. The story of the family was of unconditional love, gentle care, unwavering companionship, understanding, and total sacrifice.
Mother Mercy and Unusual Cartoonist Yesudasan lived a long life of symphony from their serendipitous reunion in 1966 to five decades as a life built together from the very beginning. She stood beside him with grace and dignity, never seeking the spotlight but always illuminating the path for those she loved.
Born in Thazhakkara, Mavelikkara, and raised in Bombay, Mercy’s life was a tale of compassion and warmth. She carved her own path, working in the Accounts Department of Central Railways before embracing the role of a wife, mother, and silent guardian of her husband’s artistic journey. She understood the language of love not through grand gestures, but through small, everyday sacrifices; ensuring her husband had the space to create, raising their three sons with patience and wisdom, and holding the family together through every storm.
To her children; Sanu, Sethu, and Suku, she was a mother who embodied unconditional love, instilling in them values of kindness, humility, and perseverance. To her daughters-in-law, Jaya Sanu and Alexi Suku, she was not just a mother-in-law but a second mother, taking them with open arms and an open heart. Life was not always easy, but she carried her burdens with quiet strength. When challenges arose, she found solace in the steadfast support of her husband. Together, they weathered life’s trials, drawing strength from their love and faith. Her home was a sanctuary of warmth, faith, and laughter.
Rest well, Mother Mercy. Your love will forever be a guiding light.
