Maureen and Family,
Thoughts and prayers to you and the McCoy family. As a fellow Hawk and underclassmen to Jeff he set the bar. He certainly made his mark and impacted many with family, associates in business and those he mentored. An encounter with him after a HS playoff football game 4 years ago was a trip down memory lane. He will be missed.
