A funeral service for former Utah Congresswoman Mia Love, who died March 23 after a yearslong battle with brain cancer, is scheduled to happen at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Institute of Religion on the University of Utah campus on Monday morning.

Love, the daughter of Haitian immigrants, was the first Black Republican woman elected to Congress. She served in the U.S. House from 2015 to 2019, and previously was elected as mayor and to the City Council in Saratoga Springs.

The Salt Lake Tribune will also be reporting from the funeral Monday.

On Sunday evening, Love was honored at the Utah Capitol, where she lay in state.

Love was diagnosed in April 2022 with a glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. Despite a dire prognosis, she lived nearly three more years. The tumor had stopped responding to treatment, her family shared last month, and Love died on March 23.

The history-making congresswoman was 49.

“Mia Love was a fearless leader, a history-maker and a woman of deep conviction,” Lt. Gov. Deidre Henderson, a friend of Love, said of the congresswoman. “Utah — and our nation — are better because of her courageous work and unwavering belief in the American Dream.”
