Sybil A. (McCoy) Lindsay
Sybil A. (McCoy) Lindsay of Davis died peacefully in her sleep Oct. 3, 2003, following a stroke, and four years after being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. She was 88.
Born Aug. 19, 1915, in Elsinore, Mo., to Mary Evangeline Kirby McCoy and Ulysses Grant McCoy, she was the youngest of 12 children. She grew up in Wilson, Kan., and met her husband Dale R. Lindsay while attended the University of Kansas in Lawrence, Kan.
After their marriage in 1937, she accompanied her husband to Ames, Iowa, where he attended graduate school. Their daughters Martha (Lindsay) Cover and Judith (Lindsay) Clapp were born there. She also joined him on his field assignments for the U.S. Public Health Service in Montana, Texas, Georgia (where their daughter Patricia Lindsay was born) and Maryland, and his later positions with Massachusetts General Hospital, UC Davis for the development and founding of the School of Medicine, Food and Drug Administration in Maryland, Duke University Allied Health Program and the National Center for Toxicological Research in Arkansas.
When her husband retired, they settled in Tucson, Ariz., before returning in 1982 to their many friends and favorite town of Davis.
While here from 1965 to 1969 and upon her return, she enjoyed activities with the Sutter Davis Hospital Auxiliary, University Farm Circle, International House, her bridge group, Mariners and Women's Circle at Davis Community Church and, when she was physically able, an occasional round of golf.
She especially valued the many friends she and her husband made during the formative years of the UCD School of Medicine and the exceptional friends and neighbors on Reed Drive after moving back to Davis, her family said.
More than a great neighbor, Rosemary Marsh was a treasured friend and eagerly received visitor until the end, her family said. For the past three years, she was cared for by Lucy and Jim Cullison and Simar Atwal and, more recently, by Yolo Hospice nurse Ted Skiera and the hospice staff.
She was preceded in death by her husband Dale Lindsay on Nov. 3, 2002, after 65 years of marriage, and her brothers and sisters.
She is survived by her daughters Martha Cover and her husband Dan of Tucson, Judy Clapp and her husband Robert of Tucson, Patricia Lindsay of Davis, 11 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren.
A memorial service and reception celebrating the lives of Sybil and Dale Lindsay are planned for Nov. 7, 2003 at 3 p.m. at Davis Community Church.
The family requests that donations be made to Yolo Hospice, Davis Community Church, UCD School of Medicine scholarship funds, the Alzheimer's Association or a charity of the donor's choice.
