Austin Pugmire grew up in Idaho Falls, and is the oldest of 6: 3 boys, 3 girls. About halfway through his mission in San Diego, CA, Austin got a call from his mission president. Speaking of his experience, Austin said: “My mission president asked me to meet him at the closest church building and to not look at my iPad until my president got there. Upon arrival, the mission president and wife told me that my younger brother, Braydon had taken his life early that morning.”
