Heather Dawn (Maxwell) Migliaccio

Heather Dawn Migliaccio passed away on August 25, 2024, on a beautiful Sunday morning that she would have loved. Heather was born on November 16, 1970, in Bountiful, Utah. Heather was a phenomenal wife, mother, grandma, sister, and friend. Her kindness was a defining trait, and she always showed compassion and empathy to those around her. Heather's love for traveling, especially to Mexico with her husband, Ryan, was just one of the many things they loved to do together. Heather embraced life with a zest that was infectious. Her carefree and fearless spirit was always the first to get excited about something fun and thrilling, inspiring us to join her on all her adventures. Heather went above and beyond for others. She never thought you could spoil or love someone too much. If you needed her, she was there in a heartbeat. She was humble and joyful, and she loved sharing other people's joy and accomplishments. Her smile and laugh were unique and contagious. When she wasn't serving others, she was cooking for her family, work, or other people in need. If you knew her, you knew her cooking put Martha Stewart to shame. One of her favorite things as a grandma was feeding Kit Kats and cookies to her grandbabies and ensuring they had the best birthday cake ever. She had a way of always making them feel so special and loved; they were all her pride and joy. Heather and Tai shared a passion for the spooky season and scary movies; it was just their thing. Unfortunately for Pops, he had no choice but to join in on their fun. When Heather faced her toughest trials in life, she always remained graceful, hopeful, and resilient. In Heather's famous words, "Sometimes crappy things just happen." She will always be the light shining in our lives. Heather is survived by her husband, Ryan Migliaccio; her three children, Tani Fedelleck (Coty), Reno Coonradt (Dallas), and Treven Coonradt; as well as her mother, Charlotte Childs; three sisters; her grandkids Tailyn, Crew, Rhev, Bronx, and Malibu; and Ryan's three sons Dustin, Braden, and Colby; and his eight grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her father, Douglas Maxwell; her grandfather Merlin Maxwell; and her grandson, Baynx Coonradt. A Celebration of Life for Heather will be held Thursday, August 29, 2024 at the Uintah Conference Center Paradise Room from 11:00am ~ 1:00pm. Services under the direction of the Phillips Ashley Valley Funeral Home.
