Jeannie: How wonderful to hear from you! Let's talk soon if you care to. Send me phone number if you would so we can connect. Boyd

Dear Boyd, we remember you as one of the friends of our Mom, Margaret! She always spoke highly of you, and she loved it when you were able to get together! Thank you for your condolences from all the Conant´s. She was 96 when she left us in January of 2021, and she was praying as she went to Eternal Life!

Family of Margaret Conant: Belated condolences on Margaret's passing. Margaret was a beloved friend and fellow librarian for many decades. Easily the most Christ-like person I've ever known. I will treasure her friendship and character for life. Love, Boyd Koehler, professor emeritus, Augsburg University, Minneapolis

It has been a year since my Mom died. I still miss her. I especially miss her when I need information I know she knows- like who's in old family pictures, and other information that can't be found on Google! She was the loveliest person I know.

Thank you for your kind messages. Mom was wonderful! Generous, gracious, witty, and fun loving!

Our condolences Ken. Tim Figge STA 1970

My sympathies to Margaret's children. I have such fond memories of her and of playing in the lovely yard across the street from my home. Mariah Forrest, I'm grateful we have been in touch. Ann and Jeanne, my best wishes. Maureen (Renie)

Margaret Conant is a Catholic pillar of Annunciation Parish in Minneapolis. When I think of research librarians I think of Margaret Conant who was a librarian at St Catherine´s College in St Paul. Margaret Conant had a twinkle in her Irish eye and a kind memory for all her friends and family. Cheers to the Conant family from Poe´s Tavern on Sullivan´s Island, Charleston, SC.
