Obituary of Reginald Edward McCoy

With heavy hearts, the family of Reginald Edward “Reg” McCoy announces his passing with his family by his side on Wednesday, February 26, 2025, at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital after a short battle with cancer. Born July 31, 1938 in Saint John, New Brunswick, he was the son of the late Phyllis McCoy.  

Reg was the most jovial, kind-hearted man anyone could ever know. Reg drove pulp truck with his brother Charlie McCoy for many years until he drove for the Dot in Minto plowing the roads.

 

Reg is survived by his wife Marie McCoy of Fredericton formally of Minto, daughters Rhonda Harvey, Darlene Price (Peter) of Mazerolle Settlement, Debbie Walsh (Allen) of Fredericton, Irene Marshall (Gary) of Burlington Ontario, sons Ronald LeBlanc (Judy) of Hamilton Ontario, Donald LeBlanc (Monica) of Burlington Ontario, grandchildren, Sheldon, Melanie, Rachel, Ryan, Kyle, Brian, Brad, Adam, Bonnie, great grandchildren, Blakely, Kendra, Audrina, Devon, Clayton, Chandler, Brennan, Emily, Kayleigh, Alissa, great-great grandson’s Jaxon, Joiner.

 

Reg enjoyed playing bingo at SMEC with many of his friends he made over the years. Reg had a passion for watching NASCAR and wrestling. He also loved playing cards with friends in Douglas Harbour at the Douglas Harbour Community Hall on Thursday night.

 

The family would like to extend a special thank you to floor 4 South West at the Dr. Everrett Chalmers Regional Hospital for their tremendous care and compassion shown to Reg and family during his brief illness. They went above and beyond for our family and it has not gone unnoticed.
