Chase Garrett Morgan

He was born on October 18, 1995, in Metairie, LA where he grew up. He graduated from Haynes Academy for Advanced Studies in 2014, where he met his wife, Courtney. He went on to get his bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology from Southeastern Louisiana University in 2018. He graduated from University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences in Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2023 and began his career as a Physical Therapist.

Chase loved being a dad first and foremost, his children were his world. Mardi Gras was his favorite time of year and he always looked forward to going to parades with his kids. Chase was always the life of the party and was well known among his friends as being a genuinely fun guy; the party didn’t end until Chase left, and he was always the last to leave. He loved going to the park and daydreaming about his plans for the future, often while playing and hanging out with his family’s golden retriever, Nellie, who he loved and treated as if she were one of his kids.

Chase’s enthusiasm for fitness and being active was infectious, and his joy of helping others lead him to his career in Physical Therapy, which he was extremely passionate about. One of his greatest achievements was running a full 26.2-mile marathon in January of 2026 with his best friend.

Chase was preceded in death by his grandparents, Alice Morgan, Thomas Morgan, Marilyn Murphy, and Robert E. Murphy, and by his aunt, Peggy Murphy.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Courtney Morgan, his cherished children, Eloise May Morgan and Parker Chase Morgan, his mother, Erin Morgan, his father, Timothy Morgan Sr., and his siblings, Brianne Morgan, Zachary Morgan (Brittany), Nikki Milgate (Brian), and Timothy Morgan Jr. (Tamra). He is also survived by his mother-in-law, Helaine Mayer, his father-in-law, Allen Mayer, and his sister-in-law, Lauren Gaudin (Pierre), as well as a host of loving nieces, nephews, and other family members and dear friends.

The family would like to thank the nurses and doctors in the Medical ICU at UMC New Orleans for the care and compassion they showed Chase in his final days.
