Keith Brian Cox, age 60, of Asheboro passed away on September 8, 2025 at Forsyth Medical Center.

Mr. Cox was born in New Orleans, LA on April 23, 1965 to Bobby and Audrey Castaing Cox. Keith practiced Veterinary Medicine for 20 years and for the last five years, he was a Veterinarian with the USDA. Keith loved being outdoors, fly fishing, hiking, backpacking, cycling, and snow skiing. Most of all Keith loved spending time with his family.

Keith Cox was as kind, caring, gentle, and wholesome as a human being could be. He was a loving father, and adoring husband, a dedicated follower of Christ, and a joy to all around him. He will be dearly missed by those he left behind.

He is survived by his wife of 34 years, Pam Hughes Cox; sons, Matthew Brian Cox of Charlotte and John Hughes Cox of Atlanta, GA; brother, Rob Cox (Johanna) of Lindel, TX; and several nieces and nephews.

A memorial service for Keith will be held on Saturday, September 27, 2025 at 10:00 am at Chestnut Mountain Presbyterian Church, 4675 Winder Highway, Flowery Branch, GA 30542 with Rev. John Batusic officiating.

In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made in his honor to Mission to the World (Presbyterian Church in America) or to Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine.
