Paul Milo Coy, Sr., age 74, of Defiance, Ohio passed away peacefully Monday morning,
September 15, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. Paul was born May 22, 1951 in
Defiance, Ohio to the late Paul Stanley and Mildred Ellen (Gaston) Coy. Paul retired
after 25 years from Campbell Soup Company in Napoleon, Ohio.
A true Renaissance soul, Paul found joy in the roar of a motorcycle engine, the rhythm
of a good tune, and the beauty of artistic expression. He was a man of many gifts,
especially the gift of gab, which he shared generously. Above all, Paul cherished his
family—they were the heart of his world, his greatest pride, and the source of his
deepest joy.
Paul is survived by his wife, Angelina Coy, Defiance, his sons, Andrew (Elisa) Coy,
Hicksville, Paul (Sarah) Coy II, Defiance, Richard Jensen, Defiance, and Paul Charles
Jensen, Toledo; daughters, Tamara (Glenn) Smith, Lexington, South Carolina, Alisa
(John) Carpenter, Auburn, Indiana; grandchildren, Zachary Coy, Noah Coy,

great-grandchildren, Elliana Coy, Ava Hobart, Paisleigh Coy, Braelynn Coy, Austin
Carpenter.
Also surviving Paul are his sisters, Christine (Bruce) Taylor, Cleveland and Ann Coy,
Crestview, Florida.
Preceded in death by his parents and brother, Franklin Coy.
A celebration of life will be held Saturday, September 20, 2025 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
