Kaylie Hogue was a high school English teacher who loved her job, her students, co-workers and the theater. She taught three years at Martin County West, and just as she finished cleaning and emptying out her classroom, that evening, June 5, she suffered an epileptic seizure and passed away of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP).
She had recently become engaged and resigned from her position at the high school to move to the Twin Cities metro area to begin a new chapter in her life with her fiance, Kurt Muhl. They were to be married Jan. 25, 2014.
