Born on March 20, 1933, in Flint, Michigan to Dr. Glen H. Joder and Anna Best Joder.

Patricia Joder Cox, a former First Lady of Cheyenne, passed away on July 4, 2021.

Known as Patsy, Patty, Pat, Trish, Trisha, Patruska, Red, Mrs. Cox, Sis, Mom and Grammie.

Patricia graduated from Cheyenne Central High School in 1951.

She attended Colorado Women's College for two years to study ballet and dance prior to attending the University of Wyoming to complete her education.

Pat married her high school sweetheart, George R. Cox in 1954.

As a Cheyenne "power couple" in the 1960s, Pat was engaged in political activities with her husband, who served as Cheyenne's mayor from 1968 and State Legislator from 1963 until his tragic early death in 1969.

After George's death, Pat fiercely soldiered on raising their two young children, Robert Glen and Deborah Ann.

Pat taught school until she retired from teaching in 1976.

In 1990 Pat moved to Boulder, Colorado, to the Joder Arabian Ranch, founded by her mother.

In 2012 Pat returned to Cheyenne, Wyoming where she resided until her death.

Pat was preceded in death by her father and mother; her brothers, Howard, Donald and Robert, and her husband, George.

She is survived by her son, Robert Glen Cox and his wife, Edie, of Cheyenne; her daughter, Deborah Cox and her husband, Mike McClelland of Dallas, Texas; and her grandchildren, Kevin and Keely Cox, both of Denver, Colorado. She is also survived by wonderful step grandchildren and many nieces and nephews, including Jackie and Bill Seebaum of Cheyenne.
