She was born in Janesville on June 2, 1944; the daughter of Harold and Elfie (Baker) Jensen. Peg graduated from Craig High School in 1962, and worked at her parents’ restaurant, the “Jensen Café,” in her youth. She also worked as the student employment supervisor in the UW-Whitewater library for about 30 years. Peg married her husband, Ken Conner, on September 1, 2007, and together they enjoyed traveling and volunteering their time at the Rotary Gardens in Janesville. Peg was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, and she will be greatly missed.
