While she is not a Granby native and hasn’t always been a veterinarian, Lisa Petersen has walked a long and winding road to get here.
For some people, like Ken Burkhart, retirement is not an option.
If you live in Granby and read The Granby Drummer, then you surely recognize the name Bernadette Gentry. She’s the voice behind the thoughtful, sometimes whimsical but always pleasing poems published each month for her community to enjoy.
Sometimes, life sends you exactly where you need to be.
If you have ever shopped at the Granby Cumberland Farms, you have encountered the smiling welcome and kindly service of Andy Laplante. He is a large man in many ways: in his big heart; in his thoughtful, friendly behavior; in his unflappable love of life. He is also a man who hones his talents for his own and others’ pleasure.
While not exactly a Granby resident, Jonathan Lynch is a familiar face around town, especially if you’re out and about early.
If you’re lucky enough to have encountered Dana McSwain over the 18 months since she and her husband Winston moved from Cleveland to Granby, then you’ve been warmed by her radiant smile. Perhaps you’ve seen her walking Simon and Pippi, her standard poodle puppies.
In its ideal form, serendipity is a reciprocal gift.
Such is the case with Philip Marshall, who has found “unsought treasures” since his arrival in Granby, a move that has benefited our town as well.
Like many of us, Sandra Flagg has seen her share of struggles and knows only too well the value of a helping hand.
If you have ever watched Antiques Roadshow, you know that many seemingly nondescript items hold surprising value on today’s market.
