Anna was a woman who loved her family.  She was a true prayer warrior and prayed for each of them every day.  She loved having family visit and always made room for one more.  One of her joys in life was to play board games with the grandkids.

She loved her church and the Lord Jesus and was always active in her local church.  As she grew older and was unable to participate in many activities, she devoted more time to praying for others.

Poetry was a lifelong passion.  If you read her poetry you would understand her love for the Lord and her family.

Ann didn’t get her driver’s license until she was 64 years old.  Prior to that she walked everywhere … church, school conference, work, etc.  

While she will be missed here by those who love her dearly, we know that she is rejoicing at the feet of Jesus today and we will see her again.

Anna is survived by her children Fred Cox Jr, (Barbara) of Highlands Ranch, Colorado; Sue Meacham (David) of Cumming, Georgia; Joyce Evans (Delbert) of Sun City, Arizona; Bill Cox (Lois) of Ocala, Florida; Sandy Bain (James) of Forest City, North Carolina; and Charlie Cox (Cherie) of Eaton, Colorado. Anna also leaves behind 16 grandchildren; 28 great grandchildren; and 1 great-great grandchild.

She is preceded in death by her husband; Fred James Cox; daughter; Connie Kay Cox; brothers and sisters; and her grandson; Ben Cox.
