Floy was the youngest daughter of Ira Zeno McKay and Delilah Elizabeth Marble McKay.
She was passionate about the history. She saved her many news articles and photos of her siblings of her McKay and Marble family and passed them on. Back in the 1980's or earlier, she identified the name of them writing names on the back. Around 1950 she wrote down her mother, Delilah E. Marble McKay's history narration, over 15 pages of text.
She was respected by family members for her generosity and wit. She was close to many of her nephews and nieces and very close to her niece and nephews, Signe and Ray Starnes.
She had many trials, including deafness for the last about 20 years and blindness for the last three. She remained peaceful and joyful.
Her great niece, Martha McKay
