We have found memories of Glen and Lois in our early days at Cliffside.

Glenn McKinney was living in Cliffside with his parents across Academy Street from our home when I was born in 1929. Glenn was in my earliest images of Cliffside. His thoughtful and friendly disposition set the standard of character for the young people of Cliffside and his kindness extended for the length of his ninety-one years. All of us will miss the music that filled the heart of Glenn McKinney and his talent to share it with others. Our thoughts are with his family.
