EDWARD CLAY "ED" COY

Edward (Ed) Clay Coy, 84, of Douglas, Wyoming, passed on to clearer waters in the comfort of his own home on Friday, November 19, 2021.

Ed was preceded in death by his loving wife, Carol Theresa (Burke) Coy, and is survived by his son, Mark Edward Coy. Ed was a friend to everyone he met.

Ed worked for the United States Forest Service and later the Bureau of Land Management before “retiring” to raise hay near Douglas. Ed enjoyed hunting, fishing, and the camaraderie of the outdoors.
