Abram McCoy Obituary (1984 - 2022)

Abram Alexander McCoy, 38, of Sanford, ME, passed away on Saturday, July 9, 2022. Abram was born May 26, 1984 to Wanda (Guay) and Sammuel McCoy. He grew up in Waterboro and attended Both Waterboro schools and St. James in Biddeford. He is survived by his daughter, Abbygale, a grandson, Julian, his father, Sammuel McCoy, siblings, Timothy, Joelle, Samantha, Seth, and Benjamin and their significant others, as well as multiple nieces, nephews, uncles, aunts, and cousins. Abram was predeceased by his mother, Wanda Guay. Abram had a contagious smile that could light up a room; his eyes sparkled with the smallest of grins. As a teen his mischievous ways often led him to trouble. School was not his style, so he picked up random jobs to earn his way. Most notably was a job he had in Nantucket, but he hated to fly in the small planes! At the age of 20 Abram was involved in a motorcycle accident that left him paralyzed and he developed long term health complications. Abram was loyal, loved fiercely, and desperately wanted to do right. Sadly, he did not fully see his own self worth and potential. As a result he often made poor choices and it led to a life of struggle; not only for himself, but for those who loved him. Throughout his life including most recently he acknowledged his failings; expressing the desire to do better and help others that shared similar challenges. Unfortunately, the struggle was too much for his kind heart. In lieu of flowers we ask that you reach out to loved ones and those in our local community with acts of support and kindness. Abram would be honored that we are helping others in his name. A private celebration of life will be held at a later date. Arrangements are under the direction of Black Funeral Homes and Cremation Service, Sanford-Springvale.
