Catherine Morgan

Catherine "Katie" Morgan (nee Maule), 72, of Waukee, passed away peacefully on November 1, 2024. She was born on August 8, 1952, in Vermillion, South Dakota. Throughout her early years, Katie moved frequently, but she eventually made Altoona, Iowa, her home-a place where she lovingly raised her family.

Known to many as "Grandma Katie," she brought warmth and kindness to everyone she met. Katie had a true passion for family and friendship, and she devoted countless hours to creating lasting memories with those she loved. Whether it was a family camping trip, a road adventure, or a new cruise to explore, Katie embraced every opportunity to be on the go, savoring the beauty of the world around her.

Her legacy of love, laughter, and boundless generosity will be remembered by her family, friends, and everyone whose lives she touched.

Katie is survived by her 3 children, Michael Morgan (Karin) of Ankeny, Mindy Miles (Brian) of Durham, NC, and Stephanie Postel (Dathan) of Adel; 5 grandchildren, Michael, Dominic, Zachary, Mackenzie, and Brianna; 1 sister, Theresa Maule; and 1 aunt, Sidney Knop.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Doyle Morgan; and her parents, Robert Maule, Janet Collins and Sam Collins.

A Celebration of Life Gathering will be held at a future date.
