Although his Birth Certificate says he was born in Wilmington, Delaware, James always stated that he was ready to be born in Texas but the family was on their way to Iraq so they stopped in Delaware before leaving the USA. He is the son of the late Dr. James C. Cox Jr. and Alma Tenney Cox.
When the family returned to the States, Jim grew up in Beaumont attending David Crockett Junior High before heading for "Allen Military Academy" where he achieved the rank of Sergent.
James was Proud to be from Texas and cared about three things in life; being an "Aggie" (attending Allen Military Academy) Texas A&M attended from Sept. '61- May '63, being a Fire Fighter( served in Beaumont, Texas; Hanover, New Hampshire), and Boy Scouts (as a Troop Leader).
James is survived by two brothers, two sisters, two daughters, and two sons.
His ashes were scattered at his favorite boy scout camp in New Hampshire.
