Obituary of Cox, Dwane Barry "Rusty"

Dwane, known by family and friends as Rusty, was born July 15th 1952 to D.B. and Pauline Cox.

Rusty was a loving father to their children, Casey, Kristy, James and Kathryn. He was blessed with multiple grandchildren, whom he loved dearly. More than anything Rusty enjoyed spending quality time with those he loved. Many memories were made in the great outdoors while fishing and hunting. Rusty was also a sports fan and especially loved coaching his children’s various sports teams. Rusty was known for his big heart and love for everyone. He will be greatly missed.

    Dear Debra and family,

    I spent many great times with Dwane, working together in DeSoto P.D., and later when he was with D.S.S. I know the past few years have not been easy, and I know from my contacts with him, he was very depressed. But, I know he knew God, and I know he is taking good care of him now.

    May God bless and keep you and yours!
