Robert Cox, Osage tribe descendent, and proud Navy veteran who served in the Pacific Theater during WWII, on the USS Bennett, transitioned to the other side on Saturday, 12/18/2021.
Preceded in death by parents, Phillip and Eva Cox, and sister, Lehla Waters-Thomas.
Robert is survived by his loyal and loving wife of 51 years, Louise Cox; five step-kids, son Philip, sister Phyllis Sliger, grandkids, nieces and nephews.
Dad always worked very hard and saved earnestly to provide for yearly, fun filled vacations to many different amusement parks and Kelleys and Pelee islands.
Holidays were always a fun and special time. Mom would create a beautiful and artfully decorated table with every food imaginable.
Dad was always up for playing in the snow. Sled rides, snowball fights, building igloos and made up snow games.
All of these good times are fondly remembered and those memories will always be cherished.
Robert will be laid to rest at the National Cemetery of the Alleghenies in a private ceremony. Those who wish to attend, please arrive on the scheduled day by 10:45 a.m.
