Fun and Unusual facts about Yvonne:
- Those who know me often refer to me as “a menopause baby” as my mother had me at 42 years old.
- I was one of the youngest children to pass the Common Entrance Examination (8 years old) in Jamaica, which you had to pass in Elementary School to be able to enter High School. The principal sent me as a “test.” At 9 years old (by the time the results were published) I was too young to be admitted to High School. Took it again two years later and was able to attend High School at 11 years old.
- Six weeks after graduating from High School at 16 years old, I started working in one of the largest commercial banks in the Capital. At 18 was promoted to Branch Manager’s Secretary.
- I’m a wife of 44 years, mother of three beautiful daughters – all married, and Nana to three delightful grandchildren, ages 7, 6, and 3.
