    Grandma doesn't begin to cover what Glenda McKay was to me. She raised me in her home and was there for me in every possible way. She was my best friend. Grandma was there with lighthearted conversation and an easy laugh when times were good and she was a shoulder to cry on and a warm embrace when times were tough. She was a source of compassion and stability when those were hard to come by elsewhere. She was the best shopping buddy a girl could have and good for endless enjoyable conversations over coffee. My grandma was the most genuine person I've ever known. Her love was never superficial, it always ran deep and felt unconditional. When you did something for my grandma, you knew she appreciated it but never expected it. And she would give her last dollar to help someone else because it was worth more to her to do for others than herself. She had plenty of quirks, but they were what made her unique. She always had a great sense of humor and could take a good-natured ribbing and just laugh right along - she never took herself too seriously. I've missed my grandma every day I didn't see or talk to her. She will always live in a very special place in my heart.

    The Dallas sisters at a Hobo party put on by Geneva Almquist around 1975ish.<br />
They love to party. Hobo, Custom Hats, Queen for the day birthday parties, etc, They would sing, dance, poetry, skits, write music and prank each other. The neighbors would always want to join because they heard all the laughter and music. No booze necessary, the old stories would have you falling off your chairs laughing.

    Glenda McKay, my loving Aunt Lenny (her nickname). I'm probably the only one to still have called her that and all the Dallas girls had funny nicknames. Aunt Glenda was one of the gentlest souls and projected that to almost everyone she met. She loved adventure but was scared to get lost. That was a bad thing to tell me when we are up hiking on Cheaha Mountain in Anniston, Al. close to where she was living at the time. My being a little naughty when way ahead of her and soon to hear my name being called in a panic. Now understand that she had just hocked a chair at the pawn shop for $5.00 so we could buy gas to take me up to the mountain to hike. Boy did I get an earful when I finally came back to join her. We had fun always playing pranks on each other. There are a lot of Cheaha Mountain stories to tell. She and Glo had a lot of them.
    I remember when she and the family lived in Titusville, FL. we would sing jungle songs all the way over as we went through a prairie full of palm trees which made it look like Africa. Some many trips, so much fun with beach trips, adventures, coquina rock quarries, shrimping, fishing, games, skits, singing, gen stone hunting, mountain trips, all full of laughter and fun. She will be missed but she is in a better place with her family all beside her. Will miss that entire generation of Dallas's. Thank you Aunt Glenda (Lenny) for the memories.
