Kathryn Morgan Obituary

Kathryn "Kitten or Kathy" Morgan died peacefully at her home in Los Gatos on September 30, 2025. She was born during WWII at the Naval base in Norfolk, VA where her father was stationed. After the war, her parents, Richard and Genevieve Kapp moved to Chicago, and later to San Diego, where she grew up. She graduated from Hoover High School and then San Jose State, later earning a Masters degree. Kathryn taught English (and was very active in the drama department) at Los Gatos High School, a vocation that she absolutely loved for her entire 37 year career. Kathy traveled extensively in the U.S. as well as in Europe, the UK, China and Africa. She was fascinated with literature, theater, art, history and architecture.

Kitten is survived by her four sisters, Diane Levorsen, Leslie Jensen, Peggy Kapp and Connie (Tom) Hooks, as well as many nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews.

A Celebration of life will be held at the Los Gatos United Methodist Church, 111 Church Street, on Friday, November 14, 2025 at 4pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Los Gatos Historical Society, Los Gatos Community Concert Association, World Central Kitchen or World Wildlife Fund would be very much appreciated.
