He was described as determined and business-minded, owning a propane business for many years, even delivering to those in need on the weekends. In his retired years, he enjoyed team penning and produced one of the largest team penning events, with over 400 teams. He was very active in his community, serving as president of the Saddle Club, a member of the School Board and a member of City Council. In 2018, he was awarded the ''Spirit of Searcy County''. He enjoyed drinking coffee with friends at the coffee shop and will be dearly missed by his community, family and friends.

Coy is preceded in death by his parents, Willie and Ora England and three siblings, Billie Jean Epley, Joe England and Dale England.
