Kathy graduated from Tivy High School in 1974 and went on to receive a bachelor's in horticulture from Texas A&M University in 1979. In her career, Kathy was driven to create landscapes that emulate nature and eventually formed her own company, Nature's Alliance in 1981, gaining a reputation for native landscape design and stone work in Texas. She described her landscaping philosophy with a quote from Lady Bird, "Texas should look like Texas."
Kathy was a fearless, inquisitive, creative, industrious adventurer with a skill for storytelling and a ready laugh. We are grateful for the good times, the shared moments, the sister and friend she was.
Kathy was predeceased by her father, Jack Lewis Taylor and her brother, Jimmy Wayne Taylor.
She is survived by her mother, Marcia (Jill) Nan Taylor; her sisters, Diane Taylor Farkas and husband Ed, and Gwen Taylor Jennings and husband Lee; her nephews, Lance Mikel Lidiak and wife Beth and their children Taylor John and Elizabeth Brynn, and Henry Lee Jennings III; and nieces, Kathryn Taylor Jennings and husband Eric Degeer, and Megan Jennings Coleman and husband Charlie and their son Charlie Ray.
We would like to thank Peterson Hospital, Hill Country Outreach, Embrace Hospice and Waterside Nursing Home for their attentive care.

I am saddened to learn just today of Kathy passing to the Lord's garden. It was a couple years ago my wife and I dropped in on Cathy and Jimmy.We discussed our parent long friendship and the Wool and Mohair buisness. We talked of their grandfather's place not far from my home now. It was good to see Kathy, so glad we stopped by. Gig'em Aggies

It is now almost September 2021, this speaks of the loss of contact I have had with Kathy. Dear sweet Kathy. She was a great friend to me for many years. I remember the first time I knew about Kathy when my roommate Court woke me up and told me about the incredible girl he had just met. I am truly saddened by her leaving us, and it has been several years since I last spoke to her, but she never really left my mind. The picture included here captures her beauty, her heart of gold and her uncaptured spirit. Every time I drive through Gruene and see the large potted flowers next to Gruene Hall, I think of her; this is where her beauty remains. Kathy, you will always be remembered and your love for all things beautiful will never leave us. Tim Darilek
