Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP1970) and 10 other sources
Margaret Kay Holst, an 18-year-old from Omaha, Nebraska, was last seen on the evening of August 4, 1977. She left her home on North 25th Street after leaving a note for her family, stating she was going out on a date with a boy she had recently met. It was later confirmed that she did meet this boy, who claimed he dropped her off near her residence after their date. Margaret never returned home, and she has not been heard from since.

At the time of her disappearance, Margaret was described as 5'6" tall, weighing 125-130 pounds, with long auburn hair and hazel or blue eyes. She had a small scar on her forehead, and her upper teeth were slightly crooked. On the night she vanished, she was wearing a long-sleeved red and black shirt, blue jeans, and blue sandals, along with an opal birthstone ring and a gold band with the letter "M." She also carried a brown imitation leather purse. Despite extensive searches and investigations, no significant leads have surfaced regarding her whereabouts.

Margaret's case remains unsolved, and little information has emerged over the years. Authorities and her family continue to seek answers about what happened to her that night.
