Boys and girls of Salem and of Roanoke County had the privilege of going to school to Miss Annie McConkey, Salem’s gifted teacher. Endowed with a very fine mind, blessed with a spirit that understood and appreciated high school youth, and f ortified by standards, both personal and professional, that were unconsciously felt by all, she taught as only dedicated teachers can teach for a period of more than fifty years. Salem and the community around it, so loved by her, is richer, culturally and intellectually, since “Miss Annie” chose to teach. 5
