His family farm was waiting for him where he raised cattle, tobacco, and corn. He also ran a grocery store in the town he was born and raised in. His son Myron McCoy worked along side his dad learning the ways of the land and growing to love the farm life just as his dad did. Myron continue the farming operation after Granddaddy Charles past away. He raised cattle, hogs, corn, and soybeans. Myron along with his wife Sharon McCoy had two children, Cheryl and Charlie. Cheryl her husband David, and their children Josie and Talton run a farm in Woodleaf, NC. Charlie graduated from NC State University in 1999 and returned home to work and continue the family tradition his granddaddy and dad had started.
