Megan Aliese Pace, 38, of Cedar Hills, Utah, peacefully passed away on October 15, 2025, following a long and courageous battle with illness. Born on November 28, 1986, in Provo, Utah, Megan was the beloved daughter of Melvin and Kathy Pace.
Megan had a special gift for connecting with children. Guided by her love of service, she earned her master's degree in social work and went on to touch countless lives through her work at Primary Children's Hospital. Megan was the youngest Program Director in the Midwest for children with autism. Her kindness, empathy, and strength made a lasting impact on every child and family she met.
She adored spending time with her nieces and nephews-planning little adventures, sharing treats, and creating the kinds of memories that will always bring smiles and laughter to those she loved most.
Megan will be lovingly remembered by her parents, Melvin and Kathy Pace; her siblings, Tanya (Bruce) Butcher, Lance (Joni) Pace, Shawn (Megan) Pace, and Natalie Pace; and her many cherished nieces and nephews who will forever hold "Aunt May May" close in their hearts.
We invite family and friends to share their favorite stories, photos, and memories of Megan on her Tribute Wall at www.AndersonMortuary.com. Though she may no longer be with us in person, her love, light, and laughter will always live on in the hearts of those who knew her.
