Clinton Mccoy

"Coy" Tidwell

Clinton McCoy "Coy" Tidwell passed peacefully to his eternal life on March 28th, 2022 at Hospice of Wichita Falls.

Coy was born March 20th, 1936 to Thomas Jefferson Tidwell and Edna Irene Siddens Tidwell in Maple, TX.
Coy grew up on a farm in Clarksville, Tx with 5 brothers and 2 sisters. He worked as a heavy equipment operator and was most passionate about crane operating. If you asked him he was the best there was. After working across the united states and over seas he settled down in Electra, Tx where he met the love of his life Mary Lee and made many life long friends. Coy was the true measure of a man. He was full of life and making memories with his great grandson Brayten kept him young. The two were quite a pair. His greatest love was his family, lovingly called daddy, papa, and uncle coy.  He was kind to animals and loved to help others in their times of need. His handsome smile, contagious laugh, generous heart, and ornery ways will be forever missed.

Coy was preceded in death by his wife Mary Lee and grandson Bradley.

Those left to cherish his memory include: His children: Melody Dean and Husband David, George Tidwell and wife Sharon, Rita Gray, and Paula Stroops. Grandchildren: Shelby, Joseph, Zane, Waylon, Clint, Tiffany, Dustie, Nichole, Jeremy, August and Roseann. Sister: Janis Wood. A "cow pen" full of great grandkids that he adored and many special nieces and nephews. His best friend Chief (dog).
