 FOR the most part, those who get involved with the Lopez Memorial Museum and Library (LMM) stay involved because they discover that they love what they do for the museum, as well as for themselves. For Margarita Fragante, LMM trustee since 1974 and trusted secretary of museum founder Eugenio Lopez Sr. (Don Eñing) since 1967, her soft spot for the museum stems from all the years being familiar with it and what it does. “The museum has accomplished a lot, especially the library. UP (University of the Philippines) scholars know the treasures in the library and are amazed at our collection,” says Fragante who, as part of her early assignments, transcribed two volumes of Spanish-language handwritten archival documents for the Lopez genealogy project in the 1970s.
