Not sure what to say?

Mary Sue, sorry to learn of Mort's passing. Although I only met him when we had lunch in New Orleans years ago he impressed me as a very kind and thoughtful person. You and your family will be in our prayers.

Dear Dr. Cox family. I was sad to see Dr. Cox's passing. I worked for him at ARC in Ann Arbor and St. Mary's. He was a great Doc to work for. Kind, funny and every lunch I ever got for him was "turkey on whole wheat"! You all are in my thoughts. Lisa Hickok

How ironic and sad that I should be thinking of you all today. It sounds as if Dr. Cox was as kind throughout his life as I remeember him being when I babysat the "kids" in Belmont. My deepest codolences to you all.

You were my (best ever) physician for many years while I lived in MI. You will rest with angels.

Dear Mary Sue and family,
