Birth date: Oct 26, 1939 Death date: Jan 28, 2026
Ronald James Cox, age 86, cast his final line at Porta Caeli House in Tulsa OK on January 28, 2026. A devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and bass angler, he was never more at home than he was on the water at Read Obituary
They say family is more than just blood, and Ron was the living proof of that. He didn't just marry into our family; he became a cornerstone of it.
I’ll always remember him for sense of humor, BIG heart and the way he loved my sister, Marilyn. He had a way of making everyone feel welcome in our family. Ron's nickname for me was "role model" which will stay in my heart forever. Our gatherings will be quieter without Ron, but our lives are infinitely richer because he was part of them. We miss you but we know you're finally at peace and we WILL see you again. 💜
I am sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. As a fellow Pharmacist who worked for Couch Pharmacies we loved to share the stories from those times. I occasionally worked for him in Broken Arrow and once set silent alarm off when I opened the pharmacy. The police showed up as I was opening the safe to retrieve the cash drawer. We also fished together a time or two.
Marla Carter lit a candle in memory of Ronald Cox
Uncle Ron held a very special place in my heart. Everytime i think of you it puts a huge smile on my face. The memories we share will never be forgotten like that time at Target, we still laughed about years later. The times I turned you onto Storage Wars, The Deadliest Catch and Dirtiest Jobs, boy do we have some stories. I will miss our laughter all the joking around and giving each other a hard time. I am thankful you came into our lives and the happiness you brought to our family and my aunt. Your love for each other was inspiring and don't worry we will make sure she is okay and we will do some Antiquing in your honor. I will miss our quarterly dinners together, Leon and I always looked forward to catching up. You will be missed until we see each other again. I love you, Marla kaye.
