Greg Hughes has never been our average Utah politician and, as his wife, I will add, he’s not the average person.
His upbringing was rough, his circumstances humble. He was raised by a single mother when she could, aunt or grandmother when she couldn’t. He experienced cold nights and eviction from more than one home. As a child, he often went to bed hungry because he had no money for food. Stability and constancy were things about which he could only dream.
At 16, he was in a car accident and was told he’d likely not walk without assistance ever again.
