Biography
Estelle had to work hard for everything she got, due in part to the challenges of growing up during and after the Great Depression. Granby wrote of those years in a short story that appears in May Basket Days and Bean Suppahs, which can be found at The New Gloucester Public Library. After graduating from Gray New Gloucester High School in 1964, Yvonne worked as a babysitter and at the Lewiston shoe shop. She would go on to earn her teacher’s assistant certificate in a Head Start program, one of her proudest moments.
