Who She Was
Her Story
Morgan Aubrey Hughes, age 23, passed away on December 28, 2024, at Utah Valley Hospital in Provo, Utah, surrounded by her loving family. A resident of Benjamin, Utah, Morgan was a bright and loving soul who touched the lives of everyone she met.
Born to Brian Lawrence and Christine Elise Hodson, Morgan was a beloved daughter, granddaughter, sister, wife, and mother. She was cherished by her grandparents, David and Lisa Butler, and Dennis and Diane Hodson, along with her brothers, Justin (and his wife Tiara) and Kaden, and several uncles, aunts, and extended family.
Morgan married the love of her life, Samuel Craig Hughes, on April 15, 2023. Together they built a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and shared dreams. She was the devoted mother to their two children, Hudson Samuel Hughes and Georgia Elise Hughes, who were the light of her life and the fulfillment of her greatest dream: to be a mom. She often said it was “the most perfect job.”
A 2020 graduate of Lone Peak High School, Morgan went on to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Texas McAllen Mission, where she served Spanish- and ASL-speaking communities. She served faithfully and loved the people of McAllen, building strong and meaningful relationships with those she taught. Every companion she served with claimed Morgan was their favorite.
After her mission, she pursued her passion for the beauty industry and graduated from The Forum Academy in 2024. With her talent, creativity, and dedication, she had recently embarked on building her dream business, Bluebonnet Curls, with a mission to help others feel confident and beautiful.
Morgan’s radiant smile, compassionate heart, and endless love will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
Morgan adored everything about Christmas and treasured the opportunity to create lasting memories with her family. She also loved country music and the beach. Her kindness, loyalty, creativity, and unwavering love for her family and friends made her a source of inspiration and joy to all who knew her.
