Jack McCoy

Jack McCoy, 86, of Meadows Place, Texas, died on Tuesday, April 28, 2015, in Sugar Land, Texas. Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma on September 20, 1928, he had resided in Houston for the past 52 years. He graduated from Sand Springs High School, served in the Air Force and received a BA in Business from the University of Tulsa. Jack married Mary Ruth Stinchcomb on March 28,1952. He was employed 32 years with Getty Oil Company.

Jack was a loving father of four children, a dedicated grandfather of eight, an avid gardener and a great story teller. There wasn't a person Jack met that he didn't remember their full name and where they were from. Jack will always be fondly remembered for his teasing and sharp wit, funny faces, and sense of humor. He always joked about having "favorites" in our family but it was a secret who they were. His family looks forward to seeing him again in heaven to find the answers to that.

Jack is survived by his beloved wife of 63 years, three children: Robin Boyd and husband Gary, Daniel McCoy and friend Shari, and Dayna McCoy; son-in-law Charles Gibbs; five grandchildren: Britney Bowie and husband Jon, Tyler Boyd and wife Jenny, Felicity McCoy, William McCoy and Catherine McCoy; three great-grandchildren: Michael Bowie, Arianna Bowie and Aubrey Boyd; brother Wayne McCoy and wife Betty, and sister Pauline Sexton. Jack is proceeded in death by daughter, Lisa Gibbs and brother Jim McCoy.
