Lynda Kay Cox
Lynda Kay Cox, 73, life was defined by and emitted four remarkable qualities—immeasurable love, determination, strength, and perseverance. In short, hers was a life well lived.
Lynda was born September 22, 1944, in Lufkin, Texas to Gordan and Erlene Clegg. The family moved to Angleton, Texas where she grew up and attended Angleton High School. After graduation, Lynda attended the University of Houston-Clear Lake, earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology.
With a passion and commitment to helping others, Lynda joined and tirelessly served her community while employed by the Bay Area Council on Drugs and Alcohol. Later, she joined the USA space company as a tech writer. With a thriving career at hand, Lynda added something new in 1979—a lifetime partnership with husband, Ron Cox.
Lynda was called home on October 6, 2017, after a courageous year-long battle with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. A battle in which she never questioned nor complained. She faced the tremendous battle with enduring strength.
She leaves behind her husband of thirty-eight years, Ron Cox. Her son, Jason Blaylock and wife Angela. Step-daughter Cathi Vann and late husband Mickey Vann, step-son Anson Cox, and step-daughter Tina Smith and husband, Russell.

Lynda was the proud grandmother of six grandchildren: Todd Vann, Chelsea Gumm, Tyler Smith, Bella, Brody, and Bailey Blaylock. She was also the great-grandmother to five: Delaney, Madison, Emma, Chappell, and Lily. She leaves behind aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family, and too many friends to name.
