Obituary

Richard L.” Rick” McCoy, 83 of Lincoln, passed away on Sunday, June 9, 2024, at Springfield Memorial Hospital.

Rick was born March 2, 1941, in Clarksburg, WV, the son of Harry and Ruby (Swiger) McCoy. He married Judith “Judy” Boyer on May 8, 1982, in Elkhart.

Rick is survived by his wife, Judy; son, Greg McCoy; two stepsons, Rickey (Rhonda) Skelton and Ron (Kim) Skelton; seven grandchildren, Hailey McCoy, Zachary (Kristen) McCoy, Lesley (Chris) Wilson, Lindsey (Trent) Kavelman, and Tyler Skelton (Ana Velasquez); seven great-grandchildren, Karter, Louie, Bennett, Brielle, Penelope, Sylas, and Zoey; and his niece, Diane Savina.

He was preceded in death by his parents; a sister, Betty (Ed) Cox; and his nephew, Terry (Kathy) Cox. Rick was the last of his immediate family.

 

Rick worked as an electrical engineer at Pittsburgh Plate Glass (PPG) for thirty-nine years. He was a member of Lincoln Christian Church as well as the Miata Car Club. Rick was a quiet man unless he was talking about history, especially the Civil War and World War II. He was delighted by bluegrass music. As the love of each other’s lives, Rick and Judy enjoyed their time together. His kind personality will be missed by all.

Services for Rick will be held at 1 p.m. on Monday, June 17, 2024, at Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home in Lincoln. Visitation will take place two hours prior from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. also at the funeral home. Burial will follow the service at Zion Cemetery in Lincoln.
