Ronnie Cox

Nettleton – Ronnie Cox, 66, passed away at his residence where he was surrounded by his family on March 12, 2019. Born on October 19, 1952, in Itawamba County, MS, he was a son of the late Eules Y. ‘Baker’ and Annie Phillips Cox.
Ronnie attended Itawamba AHS. Following school, Ronnie initially worked for Pennsylvania Tire, Tupelo and Creative Glass, Tupelo. He then did heavy construction work on the Tenn-Tom Waterway. From there, Ronnie worked for H & J Pools, Shannon, and later Dixie Pool’s, Verona. Ultimately, Ronnie started his own pool company, Ronnie’s Pool Service, Nettleton where he served the public for many years.
A very kind, thoughtful, and compassionate person, Ronnie was a true gentleman. Ronnie accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior and grew up Baptist. He met a sweet lady Brenda in the shop located at his home. As their relationship kindled and grew, they fell in love and were married on January 31, 1997. They were blessed by God with four children. Ronnie dearly loved their close family bond and cherished being together with them.
One who loved being outdoors, he enjoyed hunting and fishing as well as raising chickens. Ronnie was a former member of Nettleton Hunting Club for 12 years and was also a former member of Bigbee-Black Cat Club. As a family, they enjoyed all of the trips camping, canoeing, traveling and riding 4-wheelers. Through all these activities, they treasure all their wonderful memories. Ronnie’s favorite music was Old Rock-n-Roll. His family and friends will cherish the wonderful memories he gave them forever.
