She was diagnosed with glioblastoma in 2022 and died on Sunday night.
Love died just weeks after she revealed her “living wish” for Americans in a comment piece for Deseret News.
“I am taking up my pen, not to say goodbye but to say thank you and express my living wish for you and the America I know,” the paragraph of the piece said.
She explained her cancer battle was coming to an end as she revealed she had moved away from treatments to spending time with her family.
Tributes have poured in for the former congresswoman, with Utah governor Spencer Cox describing Love as a “trailblazer.”
