Maria was born in Buchanan County, Virginia, on March 17, 1927. She loved singing and playing the guitar, banjo, and several other musical instruments. The music she was most passionate about was gospel and country songs. Maria also enjoyed sewing, knitting blankets, crocheting, and embroidering, and going to the Senior Citizen Center in Levelland. Her biscuits and gravy will be missed the most. Her daughter Edith and son-in-law Randy dedicated a large part of their lives caring for Maria. She often said that God had blessed her with a long life. Maria will be missed very much.
Maria was preceded in death by both of her parents, Jessie and Lucy Hunt; her only sibling, Loama Hunt; and her husband, Nath McCoy.
Maria is survived by seven children, Carlene Davis and Charlene Duran both of Albuquerque, NM; Sherman McCoy of Grants, NM; Judy Lopez of Los Lunas, NM; Edith Merrick and husband, Randy of Shallowater, TX; Nathaniel McCoy and wife, Debby of Cypress, TX; and Kelly Rutledge and husband, Mike of Clovis, NM; many grandchildren; great-grandchildren; a nephew; and great-nephews and nieces.
Memorials are suggested to the Alzheimer's Association at alz.org.
