Memories of you and Jim came flooding back this morning when I opened the paper and learned of a very special couple in the lives of my mom and dad, Hubert and Geneva
Cox. Both are gone home and sadly missed. The teasing that went on between my mom and Jim was a constant. Dorothy Autenreith (now gone on too) told me many times that mom was a flirt that is why Jim, Kenny and Mel were always kidding around with her. Well, she like Jim lived a Godly life that showed around them in all that they did. Co-op group made me aware of how important it is to have friends and ones who share in the love of the Lord. Juanita, no doubt life will never be the same without him but we too can come to rejoice because our loved one is now safe in the arms of Jesus. My condolences to you, Scott and Joni. May memories of your past together give your laughter, tears and comfort. Love, Cynthia (now Cyndi) Cox,Seifert.
