Early on, Phyllis’s family lived on Chevy Chase near Maple Park. Her favorite outing was when her grandmother would take her to the park “nutsing.” Phyllis’ grandma used a long stick, and they would shake walnuts out of the trees. Brand Blvd. was the shopping destination; there was no Americana or Galleria. So much has changed, but Glendale is still a wonderful place to call home.
