SALT LAKE CITY -- Two missionaries serving for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Romania have died.
One of the missionaries was from Utah.
According to the Church, Elder McKay Choy Burrows, 20, of Highland and Elder Jace Davis of Logandale, Nev., passed away in their Bucharest apartment overnight from apparent accidental natural gas asphyxiation.
Church leaders have notified the families of the missionaries.
In a statement, Church leaders said, "We extend our love and sympathy to the elders' families and friends. We pray that the Spirit of the Lord will bring them peace and comfort at this difficult time."
AMERICAN FORK -- Funeral services were held Monday afternoon for a Highland man who died while serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The Alpine Tabernacle in American Fork was filled to capacity as the services were held for Elder McKay Choy Burrows, who died while serving a mission in Romania.
Family members and many friends of Elder Burrows, who had served as a missionary in the Romania Bucharest mission, gathered Monday afternoon for the 90-minute service.
The 20-year-old LDS missionary, along with his companion, Elder Jace Davis, both succumbed from accidental asphyxiation on Jan. 29. It was caused by a leak of natural gas inside their apartment in Romania.
Elder Burrows grew up in nearby Highland, Utah. He was an honor student at Lone Peak High School and had attended BYU on a scholarship. He was remembered Monday as an accomplished musician who loved writing, drawing and sports and had a life-long goal of serving a mission.
Elder Russell M. Nelson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints represented Church leaders at the service. He offered condolences to the family, reading a letter on behalf of the First Presidency.
Services were also held Monday in Logandale, Nev., for Elder Davis, which was attended by Elder Quinton L. Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
The funeral procession went from the Tabernacle to a brief graveside service at the Highland Cemetery, where Elder Burrows will be buried.
