Coy was just like another older brother to me plus a partner in business and a copilot in the Bonanza! No sad days with Coy as he always seen the positive side of life both naturally and spiritually.

Such fond memories of Coy here in North Central Montana. Remember Coy and Marlene well and the years they spent here. We have continued to miss them since the day they moved away. From cooking an excellent prime rib at our wedding and pulling together a treasured wedding quilt, to working with Coy, to wonderful fellowship together, Coy and Marlene were a part of our life, of some very special times! Know there will be difficult days ahead when you will surely miss him...he is forever in our hearts! Glad and thankful he has so much to go on to! With our love, Miles and Arlene Henke (Luke and Jonathan).
