Hugh was born in Hurricane, Utah on March 9, 1927 to Paul Hardy Gates and Elizabeth Lena Isom. He graduated from Hurricane High in 1945; then in 1946 he was drafted into the Army, serving in Japan as a Supply Sergeant and receiving an honorable discharge one year later in April 1947. After attending Dixie College for a year, Hugh served as a missionary from 1948 to 1950 for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the North Western States Mission. He then attended Brigham Young University for four years where he met his sweetheart, LaVan Heninger; they were married June 15, 1953 in the Salt Lake City Temple. Hugh's career started as a chemist, then moved into business with New York Life, Gates Real Estate, and Gates New Home Builders. In his later years, he pursued other various sales endeavors. Hugh was a cheerful, hardworking husband and father who centered his attention on his family and church service. He loved life, learning, and genuinely loved other people. He especially enjoyed his church callings which included teaching, missionary work, and serving in the temple.
