On May 28, 2016 Coy went to meet the Lord doing what he loved, competing at a PRCA Rodeo in Cowtown, N.J..
Coy was the most polite, well mannered, level headed, God loving, passionate, and positive man we knew.

Coy is survived by his parents; Doug and Sabine Lutz of Howard, two sisters; Melanie (Justin) Witherite of Pleasant Gap and Laura (Ryan Watkins) Lutz of Beech Creek, one niece; Jolene and one nephew; Tanner whom he adored tremendously. His paternal grandparents; Larry and Dottie Swartz of Bellefonte and Ira and Sandy Lutz also of Bellefonte. He is also survived by Uncle Michael and Aunt Karin Rottenberger of Nuremburg, Germany.

“I know this, that our time here is short. It is of utmost importance that you find what you love, what you're truly passionate about, and do it everyday” Coy was doing just that, pursuing what he loved most when he lost his life and that my friends, is success of the highest degree. Here's to you, Coy. Thank you for showing us the way.
