The state capitol building of Utah, located in Salt Lake City, stands atop a hill overlooking the city. Known as the "Beehive State," Utah's three branches of government meet in this building, designed by Richard K.A. Kletting. Here the American flag and the state flag of Utah fly at half mast, in memory of the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks.

Utah Governor Spencer Cox has ordered all flags be flown at half-staff Monday, April 7, in recognition of the life, legacy and service of former U.S. Representative Mia Love.

Rep. Love will lie in state at the Utah Capitol Building on Sunday from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. before the memorial service Monday.

The 10 a.m. service is open to the public at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Institute of Religion at the University of Utah.

Flags will be lowered at sunrise on April 7 and returned to full-staff at sunset.

Love was the first Black Republican woman elected to Congress.

She died in Utah on March 23, three years after being diagnosed with glioblastoma, one of the most common and aggressive types of brain cancer.
