Curtis Bengal Coy was born in St. Mary, Jamaica on February 24, 1942, but due to a clerical error, March 24, 1942 was recorded as his date of birth. Curtis was the eldest son of the late Maria & Eric Coy. Curtis was educated in the Jamaican school system. In 1969, Curtis migrated to the United States to join his wife. Curtis wanted to provide a better life for his family, so he attended school at night and obtained a degree and certifications to become a BioMedical Engineer. In 1972, he began his long career with Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York, and retired 31 years later. He was a member of Beulah Church of God 7th Day in Bronx, NY. Evangelist Curtis Coy preached and teached all over the world, and touched many lives.
In 2008, Curtis moved to Florida. He transferred his membership to Beulah Church of God 7th Day in West Palm Beach and served in ministry until his health began to decline.
