Dick McCoy’s Bio

Dick McCoy was born on January 7, 1942 in Slatersville, Rhode Island.

He worked on contract to NASA with several different companies for 35 years. He and his family lived in several locations including Ft Myers Florida, Ecuador, Bermuda and OH.  His last job was Sr Manager of Honeywell Computer Operations at NASA Lewis Research Center in Cleveland, OH.

Early retirement gave him and his wife, Debbie, the opportunity to run an alpaca breeding business in upstate NY for 19 years.  During that time he served on the Empire Alpaca Association board of directors for 2 years.

Dick and Debbie retired to Mexico Beach in 2016 where they have lived happily ever since.  Mexico Beach is home for the McCoys and Dick is looking forward to serving on the city council.  Representing the voice of the citizens of Mexico Beach will be his highest priority.
