Kathy Jean Greenough

She was born on January 25, 1943 in Orange, California, and said her childhood was idyllic. She eventually moved to Colleyville, Texas, West Milford, New Jersey, and Denver, Colorado. While in New Jersey she landed a job with IBM and she was rightfully very proud of her career with them. She loved her time in Texas, and when an opportunity through IBM came up to transfer to Dallas she jumped at the chance. A friend from Colleyville set her up on a blind date, and on April 25, 1987 in Dallas, TX she married the love of her life William (Bill) George Greenough. This union created a loving blended family which included nine grandchildren and two great-grandchildren who adored her. She is survived by daughter Lori Marie Ingrum; son Stephen Robert Ingrum and wife Tami; son Jeffrey Allen Greenough; and daughter Kimberly Ann Greenough-Hodges and husband Will. She was preceded in death by her husband Bill Greenough, her sisters Margaret Valentine and Nancy Taylor; and her dear lifelong friend Barbara Green.

Kathy was very involved with Canyon Creek Presbyterian Church and the North Texas Presbyterian Pilgrimage community. She was vivacious and adored by all who came into contact with her. She showered others with love. She will be greatly missed.

Services will be held April 8; 2026 at 3:00pm at Canyon Creek Presbyterian Church in Richardson, Texas. In lieu of flowers the family suggests donations to a charity of your choice.
