Marvin Dean McCoy

Marvin Dean McCoy was born on February 17th, 1935, to Oscar and Della McCoy in Vesta, MN. He graduated from Milroy High School in 1953 and married Harriet on July 20th of the same year. Soon after they moved from Milroy to Granite Falls, MN where they opened their business, McCoy Oil Company, and raised their three children. They remained in Granite Falls until the early 1980’s when they began living year-round in Mesa, AZ. In Mesa, Marvin began a successful career in Real Estate Sales until his retirement in 2012.

Marvin was a caring man who led with his heart, making an instant connection with those around him. He had a quick wit and was never at a loss for words, he always had something to say. He had an adventure for life that was shown through his ability to make quick friends with the many people he met along with Harriett.

He is survived by his wife Harriet of 69 years of Mesa, AZ, son Kevin (Mary Ann) McCoy of Boiling Springs, SC, grandchildren Rachel McCoy of Wilmington, NC, Ryan McCoy of Greensboro, NC, Taylor Morganson of Tempe, AZ, Parker Morganson of Mesa, AZ, and sister Donna Alexander of Rockingham, VA.

He was preceded in death by his parents Oscar and Della, children Michael McCoy and Cindy Morganson, brother Gordon McCoy, and Lynnette McCoy.

A celebration of life for Marvin will be held Saturday, August 5, 2023, with a visitation from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM and a service to follow, at Sunset Funeral & Cremation, 100 North Ave, Echo, MN 56237.
