Missionary P. Mccoy
December 25, 1936 — February 14, 2024
Missionary Velma P. McCoy, age 87, of Toledo, Ohio, passed away and went to be with the Lord on February 14, 2024, at Foundation Park Alzheimer's Care Center. Velma was born on December 25, 1936, in Toledo, Ohio, to the late Stephen and Johnetta (Mitchell) Thomas.
Velma attended Burnham High School in Sylvania. A woman of faith, she was a member of Pinewood Tabernacle since 1975, where she enjoyed singing in the choir. Velma was a mother to many, one of them being the church. She became a Missionary within in the church and has been very devoted. Velma had the biggest heart and would help anyone in need. With her love and compassion towards others, she started her own business as a caregiver; she would travel around to the homes of those who needed her or she would stay with them. In the earlier years, Velma had a passion for fishing and tending to her garden. She was very artistic and enjoyed doing puzzles, drawing and coloring.
Velma will continue to live on through those who were blessed to have her in their life. Her love, smile, and faithfulness will forever be missed and the memories will be remembered.
Those left to forever cherish Velma's memory are her loving step-son, Robert (Joann) McCoy; 15 grandchildren; 34 great grandchildren; many great great grandchildren; sister-in-law and best friend, Carol McCoy; and numerous nieces, nephews, and loved ones.
In addition to her parents, Velma was preceded in death by her husband, Edward Lee McCoy Sr.; son, Ronald Thomas, Sr.; daughter, Brenda Murdock; step-sons, Kenneth McCoy, Edward Lee McCoy Jr., and Timothy Owens; grandsons, Lemuel Lofton, Jr., Glenn Thomas and infant great grandson, Rashaun Ameer Foster III; and siblings, Willard, Albert, George, Ruth, Lennie, Dorothy, and John.
