Pastor Coy's Story

Hi All First things first. As a lot of you know, I wasn't the nicest person to some of you. And for that I ask for your forgiveness. A lot has happened in the last almost 40 years. I went into the Navy in 68, became a (Seabee) in construction and was sent to Subic Bay, Philippines. I didn't pick up a hammer the whole time I was there. I moved ammo and supplied ships off the coast of Vietnam. I returned home to work in the Masonry business w/my Dad (Buck) and Brother (Rocky) 1971 to77. In 1977 I was working on a block job at the Toyota dealership in Puyallup and lost my right eye to a concrete nail. I tried to lay bricks for about a year but really needed that eye to lay a straight line. So, we opened a fireplace and brick yard down in Kent. I then divorced after things didn't work out. Soon after, I met the love of my Life (BIG TIME)...We combined families for a total of 4 children, have been married 27 yrs and still going strong. Our kids have spouses and children o...Expand for more
f their own. Our grandkids are ages 18 months to 18 yrs,. I worked in the fireplace shop for 2 years when dad wanted to get out of the rain, and I wanted to get back to what I wanted, to start my contruction Co. I did that for 6 yrs. After closeing the business I went to work for Interpace Brick Co. and drove truck for 1 yr. Then drove truck for another company for the next 6 yrs. I became a Branch Manager for a brick co. in Woodinville for 2 yrs. I once again started another Co. This time a general contruction Co. Most of the work was in Seattle and Moses Lake areas. I had this company for 6 yrs. My next career was to join Grainger Industrial Supply. It's now been over 13 yrs. 10 yrs ago we bought 7 acres in Kent and had a custom home built on it. We are surrounded by trees and lots of wild animals. We even had a black bear visit 3 times. It's great to wake up and smell fresh, clean, sweet air everyday. Hope you are having a great life as well. Coy Sr.
