BYU Student, New Father Succumbs to Sudden Illness Day After Son's Birth

In this season of giving, a community has rallied around a Utah County woman who's dealing with immense loss. Her husband suddenly died Friday night, just one day after the birth of their first child. Josh Robison, 24, was a student at BYU and taught at Lone Peak High School's LDS Seminary. His mother said he was enjoying married life and anticipating the birth of his son.

"He was looking forward to it, but he was really nervous," Jodi Robison, told KSL News Saturday.

Josh spent Thanksgiving with his family in Fillmore. That weekend, he came down with flu-like symptoms.
