Katie G. Jacobs, age 96, passed away July 22, 2020 at Risen Son.
Katie was born in Council Bluffs on August 5, 1923 to the late Fritz and Sophie (Winkelmann) Jacobs. She attended Abraham Lincoln High School. Katie loved her farm and kept mowing until the age of 89. She and her sister, Martha, never married and continued to live on the farm on Gifford Road. She acquired shingles, which began her battle. She fought hard and then battled the Coronavirus, but ultimately her body and soul wore out. Katie was extremely talented in her handiwork of tatting, crocheting and sewing. She would say, “How can I ever repay you?” We told her that’s what family is for, to help one another.
In addition to her parents, Katie was preceded in death by her sisters, Martha Jacobs and Margaret Bussey and husband, Walt; Uncle Heimie Winkelmann and Cody Bergantzel.
She leaves behind her beloved nephew, Walt (Cindy) Bussey and family, Sean, Wally (Becky) Bussey, Courtney (Dan) Lohrenz, Ava and Ella Bussey, Emry and Grayson Lohrenz; niece, Deanna Bergantzel and family Chris (Bob) Hayes, Nathan, Lexus and Misty Bergantzel; Kandi (Scott) Snipes, Bill Bergantzel, Ally Snipes, Payton (Erran) Holtz; many friends.
Many friends and family came to celebrate her 90th birthday but due to COVID-19 we say goodbye so differently.
