Not sure what to say?

RIP & thanks for your service to our country.

I have been trying to find the right words to say how much Dick & Delores mean to me and how much they have enhanced my life. They are always there for me, to offer help, support, suggestions & advice. Any time I needed help fixing something, Dick was always willing to offer his knowledge & tricks. Dick & Delores taught me how to take care of my dog and they babysat him so I could work long hours. I knew Scrappy would be safe & well taken care of at the Cox house. They always cooked...

Our most sincere sympathy to your family at this difficult time.
God Bless you all and we pray for your comfort and peace.

Pox, I can't even begin to describe how much I miss you! You were an inspiration in so many ways. You worked hard all your life, and always made sure you made the best of any situation. You loved Grandma whole heartedly and had an amazing life together filled with so much joy! You had so many wonderful qualitiesespecially your sense of humor. You always looked at life as a glass half-full and I loved that about you. You taught me so many wonderful lessons in life and I will always cherish...

It was always so safe and wonderful that "Uncle Dick and Aunt Delores" lived across the street from us and were such fun and loving people. May God keep his loving and comforting arms around all of you during this difficult time.

We are so very sorry to hear of the loss of your father. Our love and prayers for your family are for strength, comfort, and hope, which only comes from God our Father through Jesus Christ.
May God comfort you and grant you peace in this difficult time.
God Bless,
Love, hugs and prayers. ❤

My Parents showed me what "true love" really is! Back in 2009, when dad had other health issues, he said to me, "I have treasured everyday that your mother has been in my life! She is my best friend and I love her so much." Those words redefined how I view all of my relationships. I try to make sure that those who are close to me, know they are loved. Thank you dad for being who you were, you will be forever in my heart and mind.

I rode to work at Fisher Body with Dick and he made sure I got up in time. Even after I left GM for Consumers Power he frequently roused me out of a sound sleep. Peace be with you, Delores, Cathy, Jimmy, Margee, Steve, Joan, Joe, Barb, Theresa, Martha and Jennifer.

Our most heart felt condolences to the Cox family. Know that he is in the hands of God and at peace. He was a wonderful, loving man.
