These are some of my favorite memories of JimCoy growing up. “Christmases at Granny’s “ He was our first little boy cousin in the Bartee family and he learned to keep up with all those girls. Jim Coy was so sweet and happy all the time. He could out laugh the girls and put up with them dressing him up and telling him what to do. He was our sunshine. When Jim Coy was living in LaPorte I got to sit with him in the hospital until Jimmy could get there from Elkhart. We were having so much fun reminiscing that his sick roommate politely kicked me out. We will all miss you. ❤ I love you

Words can’t describe how saddened we are to hear the news. You were a great friend and an entertaining driver. We were always your listening ears whenever you needed someone. You'd get frustrated while out on the road, but you’d go about your day and get a good laugh about it later. You’ll always be remembered by us but now you’re reunited with your momma. The best reunion you could ever get. Rest in Peace Jim, you’ll be missed greatly.
Love, your family at Renfrow’s Pilot Car.
