My name is Paul, and I'm reaching out to support my mother, Tanuray McCoy, after the recent loss of my father, Gary Gene McCoy. Gary and Tanuray were married for almost 30 years, building a life together filled with love, music, and family. Gary worked as a union electrician his entire career and taught for the union for many years also. He was a proud grandfather to Jonah and Hayden. He loved good food and spending time with those he cared about most. His passing has left a huge hole in our lives, especially for my mother, who is on a fixed income and disability.

Tanuray has always been the heart of our family—an unwavering wife, mother, and grandmother. She cared for Gary for many years as he battled congestive heart failure, showing strength and compassion every step of the way. My mother is a very proud person, and it is difficult for her to accept help, but the financial strain of cremation costs and rent is overwhelming. We want to give her the time and space she needs to grieve and adjust without the added stress of immediate bills.

We are deeply grateful for the emotional support we've received from friends, family, and the local Elks Lodge in Rancho Cordova. Any help you can offer will go directly toward funeral expenses and helping my mother stay afloat during this transition. Thank you for considering a donation and for keeping our family in your thoughts.
