Vickie Lynn McCoy, 61, of Sod, WV went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Sunday, August 23, 2020 after a six-year, hard fought battle with ovarian cancer. Anyone who was blessed to know her knew she was a very strong woman. She fought a good fight, she finished her course, and she kept her unwavering faith. She was a faithful member of Elizabeth Missionary Baptist Church. She was preceded in death by her father, Gerald Moore.
She leaves behind the love of her life, her husband of 42 years Carl; daughter Andi (Jason) Byrd; son, Joshua (Ashley) McCoy; and daughter Shelley (Casey) Campbell; grandchildren Isaac and Halli Jo Byrd, Hunter, Carley, and Colbi Campbell, and Josey Lyn McCoy; her mother Janis Moore; siblings Ginny Brogan (Paul) and Lee (Meredith) Moore. She also leaves behind many nieces, nephews, friends, and a large extended family.
The family would like to give special thanks to her Johns Hopkins medical team and Cabell Huntington Oncology Group, oncology unit, and infusion center.
2 Timothy 4:7 “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.”

May you find comfort in God’s promise at Revelation 21:3,4. “God himself will be with them.
And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor
Outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things has passed away.”
Vickie was an awesome person! We worked to together at Healthsmart. She always had a smile. She fought a long hard battle. So awesome you have the assurance that she is in Heaven. Prayers of comfort for all.
What a fighter!!!!
In the few short years that Kennith and I got to know Vicki..we knew right off what a wonderful/kind person she was! She was always smiling and friendly!!! She fought a long hard battle…I don’t think I have ever met anyone with as strong of Faith than Vicki!!! Whenever I was asked by people that knew her how she was doing, I’d always reply with “she’s still fighting” “and she is so strong in her Faith” I would always reply also that if ever I was told that I had an incurable disease that “I” would have Faith like Vicki!!! She was immovable!!!! No matter what darts Satan thru at her, she stood strong!!!! She was a mirror image of what every mother,grandmother,friend,CHRISTIAN should be like!!! So very thankful that God gave Kennith and I the opportunity to get to know her and her husband Carl!! Such sweet/kindhearted/loving people!!! My prayers continually for Carl,their children and grandchildren…prayers for all those that are left behind to miss her! But rest assured that one day if your heart is right with Christ…there will be a reunion like never before!!!! She will no longer feel pain, she will forever be with our Lord and savior awaiting the day when we all will be together again!!! God please bless and comfort the Mccoy family in their time of sorrow!!! Just remember the great times and that again you will see her!!! With all of our Love and Prayers…

Vickie was the best. We worked together at HealthSmart, and she taught me everything. I would call her Victoria and she would tell me stories about a teacher use to call her that and she corrected her because that was not her name. I would say but I like that name and so she would let me call her Victoria. She prepared me for when I was getting ready to become a Senior CSR. I’m truly heartbroken and I had hoped she beat cancer. When she left HS and then I finally left. I thought of her everyday but never knew how to get a hold of her. When my mom died she was there for me, and when I got married she put together a cute box for me. RIP
We were saddened to hear of the passing of Vickie. Our deepest condolences are with you and your family.
