Doris Marie Mccoy

Doris Marie Linton McCoy, 87, of Opelika, AL passed away in the comfort of her home under the care of her son and daughter on an early Wednesday morning, July 6, 2016.  Now she is strolling and rejoicing on the streets of gold with our Heavenly Father, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Graveside services will be held 11:00 am CDT / 12:00 noon EDT on Monday, July 11, 2016 at Providence Cemetery in Glenwood, AL with Pastor Mike Turner officiating.  The family will receive friends at the graveside.

She was born June 4, 1929 in Glenwood, AL to Jessie J. Linton and Carrie Oglesby Linton.  She was a registered nurse for over 60 years, and a devoted mother of six.  She cared for her husband at home until he passed away with Alzheimer’s.   She was always helpful and generous to others and will be greatly missed.  She was a true country girl and loved flowers and farming, believed in God and Heaven and probably right this moment, instructing the saints on how to take care of all the Heavenly flowers.  Other than her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband, John W. McCoy, son, Ernest Clifford Hadley III, and (5) brothers, J B Linton, Lance Linton, Wesley Linton, Leslie Linton, and Hasting Linton.

She is survived by her children, Barbara Lynn Coursey, Mary Lee Woods, Sarah Helen Taylor and husband Steve, Jesse Carolyn Riccio and husband Rick, and Keith Hadley; one brother, Douglas Linton and wife Patsy, (3) grandchildren, Kasey Hadley, Ernest Clifford Hadley IV., and Brandon Keith Hadley, numerous extended family members and many caring friends.  Online condolences may be made at www.vancememorialchapel.net.
