It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the sudden and tragic passing of Morgan Hughes on December 28th, 2024, just days after giving birth to her beautiful twins, Georgia and Hudson, on December 19th. Morgan was only 22 years old. Her loss has left an unfillable void in our department, our community, and the hearts of all who knew her.
Morgan was an extraordinary woman. In her brief time with us, she touched countless lives with her warmth, kindness, and infectious joy. As a mother, her greatest dream had been realized just days before her passing when she welcomed her twin babies into the world. Her love for her children was undeniable, and the joy she felt in becoming a mother was clear to everyone around her. Morgan’s heart was full, and the bond she shared with her family, friends, and community was one of deep love and connection.
Morgan was more than just a loved one; she was a cherished member of our department. Morgan’s father, Brian Hodson, has been a beloved Captain at the Lone Peak Fire Department for many years. He has been part of our fire family since the days of the department’s volunteer service, and Morgan grew up alongside the men and women of this station. From an early age, she spent time within the walls of this station, building relationships with all of us who were honored to know her. Morgan was part of our department family long before many of us, and she will always be a part of our fire family, even in her absence.
Her presence was always a bright spot in our days. Whether she was visiting the station or spending time with her father, Morgan radiated warmth, kindness, and an infectious positivity. Her laughter and genuine interest in others created an atmosphere of camaraderie and belonging. She never hesitated to share a smile, a kind word, or a hug with anyone in need. Morgan was a light, a beacon of joy to all who crossed her path, and her memory will remain etched in our hearts forever.
Morgan’s sudden passing has sent shockwaves through our department. The loss of such a vibrant, loving young woman has left us all grappling with a profound sense of sorrow. Our grief is compounded by the unimaginable challenge her partner, Sam, now faces as he navigates life without Morgan by his side, raising their newborn twins on his own.
Morgan and Sam shared a deep and unshakeable bond—one rooted in love, trust, and the shared dreams of building a family together. Their journey as parents began just a week before her passing, when Georgia and Hudson were born. The joy of their arrival was bittersweet, as Morgan was unable to hold her children in her arms at home or experience the simple, everyday moments that come with motherhood. Sam now faces the heartbreaking task of raising their children alone, without the woman he loved and the mother they so desperately need.
The road ahead for Sam and their twins will be difficult. Beyond the emotional toll, there will be financial challenges as Sam works to provide for Georgia and Hudson’s future. The days ahead will be full of both profound sadness and immense responsibility as he navigates life without his partner, but with the support of the community that loved Morgan.
In this time of unimaginable pain, we ask for your help. Your generosity, no matter how big or small, will make a difference. Donations will provide Sam with the support he needs to care for their precious babies, to help him with the challenges ahead, and to honor Morgan’s memory in the best way possible. Every contribution, every prayer, every kind word means more than you could ever know. The outpouring of love and support from our community has already been overwhelming, and we are deeply grateful for each and every act of kindness.
Though Morgan is no longer with us, her spirit lives on through the beautiful twins she brought into the world. Georgia and Hudson are the legacy of her love, and they will carry with them the memories of their mother’s warmth, her laughter, and her unwavering love for them. As they grow, they will learn about the strength and beauty of the woman who gave them life and filled it with love. Her memory will forever live on in their hearts, and in the hearts of all who loved her.
Morgan’s life may have been brief, but it was full of purpose. She touched so many lives with her kindness, her light, and her endless capacity for love. It is impossible to put into words just how deeply she will be missed, not just by her family, but by all of us who were privileged to know her. Her memory will remain forever in the hearts of her father, Brian, her partner Sam, her children, her friends, and all of us who called her part of our extended family. Send donations to the Gofundme for your support.
Morgan, we will miss you more than words can express. Your love, your light, and your laughter will forever be a part of us. We will hold you in our hearts, always. We are so sorry you had to leave so soon, and we will do our best to honor your memory by supporting Sam and the twins in every way we can. You may be gone, but your legacy of love will never fade. Rest in peace, Morgan. You will never be forgotten. To Morgan’s family and friends, we offer our deepest condolences during this heartbreaking time. Please know that you are not alone in your grief. We stand with you, ready to support you in any way we can, as we all work together to carry Morgan’s memory forward.
