As many of you know, on Friday, November 14th, 2025, our mother Kathy (Ballinger) Hough went in for a double bypass and mitral valve replacement surgery. We all were praying so much that this surgery would help her health out a lot. That being said, on Sunday, November 16th, 2025, our beloved mother Kathy (Ballinger) Hough unexpectedly passed away. She was surrounded by her children: Son Levi Hough (fiancé Taylor Rice), Daughter Jasmine Lee & Husband Hunter Lee, Daughter Destany Hough (boyfriend Johnathan), and Daughter Sage (Daisy) Hough. Along with her sister (best friend) Rebecca Hammond and lifelong friend Patricia Finch, everyone was standing by her side.

We are making this fundraiser to try and get some help to be able to pay for the expenses of cremation, as that was Kathy's wish. We also are trying to save up and get a headstone for our mother Kathy and our grandmother Louis Ballinger, who has recently passed. We feel as a family that they would have wanted to have a conjoined headstone together. There will be a celebration of life for both our mother and grandma next year sometime, as we are conjoining that celebration together.

Any donations will be so helpful and greatly appreciated. Our mother was a wonderful mom and a great friend who loved and cherished everything in life.

So we just hope everyone can remember the great memories we all have had together ❤️
