I find it interesting that he said that in the coming days he will see the Lord and be received in His Glory. He was in good health at that time, but within days after the talk he died.

I rally hate to correct you after all the good work you have done here, but Elder McConkie knew he was dying, it was a miracle that he was able to speak at the conference, and he was standing there knowing he was going to die, and soon. I am a distant relative, and his daughter is in my ward, we have discussed this very talk, but I did not get to see it since I was in Taiwan on my mission at the time

Sorry didn’t know. I wasn’t really involved heavily in the Church at that time. I just heard he died right after.
