MINNEAPOLIS -- Margaret "Peg" Imhoff, a fixture in the Twins' press box for 42 years, known for her welcoming personality and effervescent smile, passed away Thursday morning after a battle with cancer. She was 79.
Imhoff, whose official role with the club was pressbox ambassador, was beloved by Twins employees and media members alike, and she warmly greeted those as they entered the press box at all three stadiums the Twins have played in since moving to Minnesota in 1961. The Twins named the dining room behind the press box "Peg's Café" when Target Field opened in 2010.
