John Killough, District 6
Being a generational resident in Hood County has kept me grounded and made me value serving our community through civic organizations as well as my active participation in the Triple Cross Cowboy Church. My wife Dana and I are both graduates of Granbury High school and have chosen to call Granbury home.
I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology from Tarleton State University, and for more than 30 years have been a small business owner in Hood County which has included being owner and operator of Killough's Dirt Service, working and maintaining agricultural operations providing quality hay to fellow farmers and ranchers across most of our service territory, while running my own cow/calf operation. This has allowed me to foster relationships and better serve others in the community.
I have invested time and energy reading and studying National Rural Electric Coopertive Association (NRECA) courses obtaining national recognition as a Credentialed Cooperative Director (CCD) and am working toward a Board Leadership Certificate (BLC). This effort has provided me the knowledge necessary to understand the electric cooperative business model where I proudly serve as the board vice chairman and am dedicated to the continuous improvement for the members of Tri-County Electric Cooperative.
