The Chicago Bears announce some tragic news this morning as executive assistant Kate Nagle passed away after dealing with some health issues since last April.
According to reports Nagle passed away a couple weeks ago on September 8th 2024.
In her 22 seasons with the Bears, Katie Nagle left a lasting impact on everyone she crossed paths with.
Nagle spent 22 years with the Chicago Bears in different position, her last one being executive assistant. Throughout all these years with the Bears, people had nothing but great things to say about her.
"The outpouring of love and support and concern from the Bears family when she got sick was just extraordinary," McCaskey said. "I can't count the number of times somebody stopped me in the hallway and asked, 'Any update on Katie? Can we go see Katie? How's Katie?' To be revered like that, it's otherworldly."
"She was the kindest person that walked the face of the earth," said Sharon Lehner, a longtime Bears employee whose cubicle was next to Katie's. "There wasn't anybody she wouldn't go out of her way to help. There wasn't anybody she didn't try to do something for. She liked people and liked being with people and helping people."
"She was the nicest person on the planet," McCaskey said. "She had an extraordinary capacity for making whoever she was talking to or dealing with feel like they were the most important person in the world to Katie in that moment."
Clearly Nagle was a pure and kind soul that everyone in the organization loved which is why it will not be easy in Chicago as they mourn her loss.
Our sympathies go out to the entire Nagle family during these difficult times.
