Coy Lee Newton, age 89, of Trenton, Georgia, passed away peacefully at his home on Wednesday, April 30, 2025. Born on February 25, 1936, he was a beloved son of the late Herman and Mildred Newton.
Coy deeply cherished his family and treasured every moment spent with them. He had a passion for fishing and had a remarkable ability to connect with everyone he met, treating all as friends. His children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and those he embraced as family were the center of his world.
A funeral service to honor the life and legacy of Coy will be held on Saturday, May 3, 2025 at 2:00 PM ET at the Trenton Chapel of Moore Funeral Home with Jason Blake officiating.

Coy also had 22 great-grandchildren and looked forward to welcoming one more great-grandson, Raynes Coy Newton.
In addition to his parents, Coy was preceded in death by his loving wife, Brenda Newton; his children, Ashley, Thomas, Bobby, and Jessie; grandchildren, Makayla, Chase, and Zachery; and his siblings, Dimple Jo Mullins, Robert Newton and Kathy Newton.
The family would also like to extend sincere gratitude to Hearth Hospice for their compassionate care of Coy in his final days; to special friend, Mrs. Finley for her companionship, and to Tyler and Kristin for the devotion to their Papaw.
