Dewain Loughry, 66, died surrounded by his family on April 20, 2025. He was a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, remembered for his quiet strength, unwavering support, and dedication to his family.  Dewain was born on December 24, 1958, to the late Vernon Loughry and the late Joyce Richardson in Greenville, Kentucky. He was predeceased by his parents and his brother Troy Loughry.

Dewain spent his career in the gas industry, working with Atmos Energy in construction, where he dedicated himself to his job and colleagues. A man of few words but loving character, he never complained, embodying resilience and integrity throughout his life.

An avid sports enthusiast, Dewain found joy in watching baseball, particularly supporting the Atlanta Braves and the University of Kentucky teams. He cherished time spent outdoors, whether fishing, hunting, or engaging in friendly games of cards. Above all, he treasured his role as “Pop” to his grandson, Lincoln, who brought him immense joy.

Dewain is survived by his loving wife, Kimberly Loughry, and his two sons, Josh Loughry and Ian Loughry, daughter-in-law B. J. Loughry, and his beloved grandson, Lincoln Loughry. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends, who will remember him for his incredible kindness and love.

  1. Dewain will always be my brother! Kim I pray that you and your family look to the day that you will all be reunited. I can’t wait to see him to tell him I’m sorry for not seeing him sooner!

  2. Kim and I came to work at Haggin Hospital Lab about the same time 1994. As time went on with different lab get togethers and functions we got to meet Dewain and the rest of the family. Even to this day to meet Dewain you wouldn’t have known he had such a multitude of health issues. He never complained or spoke negatively about his situation. At one time in the lab four of our husbands were diabetic and we shared a lot of information. Dewain was a lot of fun to be around. No matter what game was being played he was very competitive! He liked to win. He is still the only person I know that liked his hamburger PLAIN just meat and bun. Most people would have given up on themselves already. I think Dewain’s positive gentle spirit and determination and many answered prayers kept him miraculously on this earth all this time. ❤️

  3. There’s not a childhood memory at Mamaw & Papaw’s in Luzerne without Dewain (& Troy) in it. From them chasing me with Gardner snakes to riding dirt bikes. As teenagers we spent most sunny days on Lake Malone boating and skiing. Then we spent weekends after most of us married on Lake Nolin. Many a card game there. Kim and the rest of us ladies were in one cabin while the guys next door were on porch of other one. Dewain took his poker serious! Lol. I have to say Dewain LOVED to pester us when we were younger. I made sure to get him back later in years! We spoke few months back on phone as he had called. I almost didn’t answer as didn’t recognize number. I’m thankful I did. I will hold all these memories close as they are a part of my life. RIP Dewain. See you again!
