The competition, hosted by Zavala's Barbecue, will be held Saturday, April 13, in downtown Grand Prairie.

DALLAS — It started as an attempt by Oak Cliff parents to instill positivity and courage in their three children as they headed off to school every day. Today it's an extraordinary message they continue to share in memory of the one child that is no longer with them.

And they say the entire family was kind, and accepting, when their 17-year-old announced in 2021, telling her parents she was transgender. "Your first reaction is let's make sure you're safe," Brent Bolding said, fearing that the acceptance the family offered Eleanor might not be what she would find in the outside world. But the Boldings say friends, classmates, and family were mostly supportive.
