We lost our dedicated leader Karan Conklin to cancer on August 11th, 2024
It is with great sadness we announce that the American Space Museum lost our dedicated leader Karan Conklin to cancer on Sunday August 11th, 2024. Karan Spent 21 years with the museum from our beginning in a strip mall to our space in historic downtown Titusville. Her face was synonymous with the museum and the place will not be the same without Karan’s daily presence. Please keep Karan’s family in your thoughts and prayers.
Karan’s husband Mark captured her dedication to family and community in a beautiful tribute to her life: https://www.northbrevardfuneralhome.com/tributes/Karan-Conklin
A memorial service will be held Saturday, August 31, 2024 at 2PM at North Brevard Funeral Home followed by a celebration of life at the American Space Museum (both in Titusville, Florida).
In lieu of flowers the family asks donations be made to the American Space Museum at
