At the time of her husband's death, Katie was on hospice in Kentucky, suffering from complications from cystic fibrosis and a lung transplant, WGN-TV reports.

"Early this morning, she gained her wish of being at home, in her bed, surrounded by her mom, dad, brother and her dogs, dying peacefully, away from the hospital, tubes, IVs," her mother, Debra Donovan, posted on Facebook. "The days to follow will not be easy but I find comfort in knowing that my girl lived, she really lived."

Dalton also died after a long battle with cystic fibrosis. He was 25-years-old.

The pair married in 2011 after a whirlwind romance that overcame medical challenges.
