Obituary
rollerfuneralhomes.com
. Patsy Ruth Copeland Cox was born in North Little Rock on July 19, 1935, to Clovis and Elizabeth Warr Copeland and died in Searcy on March 8, 2017. The granddaughter of Arthur and Della Warr and Alvin and Lizzie Copeland, she attended Robert E. Lee Elementary, Westside Junior High, and Little Rock High School before graduating from Harding Academy in Searcy in 1953. That same year, she married C. L. Cox of Paragould to whom she was devoted for more than 57 years before his death in 2011.
Pat leaves behind the family she and C. L. worked so intentionally to build into a legacy of faith and integrity. In addition to her precious sister Bonnie Dillard of Searcy, Pat is survived by son Mickey (Robin Hankins) Cox of Beebe; daughter Mollie (Tim) Woodbridge of Melissa, TX; son Monte (Beth Harp) Cox of Searcy; and daughter Mariann (Tim) Snyder of Landenberg, PA. She delighted in her grandchildren: Arielle (Bo) Perry of Cameron, OK; Laurel (Edward) Jasso of Bryant; Gabriel (Anna) Cox of Beebe; Whitney (Eddie) Caballero of McKinney, TX; Jennie (Caleb) Courtney of Hurst, TX; David (Abby) Degge of New York, NY; Rachel Cox of Memphis, TN; Joel (Becky) Cox of Memphis, TN; Sarah (Andrew) Fraser of Searcy; Amanda (David) Thornton of Fort Gibson, OK; Mark (Kristi) Snyder of Durant, OK; Adam (Jenn) Snyder of Fairbanks, AK; and Michelle (Adam) Harris of Melissa, TX.
In recent months, she indulged often in her new favorite pastime of counting her great-grandchildren and tracking when new ones were expected. She loved holding and soothing the babies, reading to the little ones, and getting news and pictures of them. She was blessed to rejoice at the births of Elijah, Arizona, Rosalie, Daniel; Isabella, Heath, Harrison, Reese, Aubrie, Ellie, Mollie, Reed, Cole, Abigail, Jade, Mya, Kaylee, Karter, and Lincoln. Anticipated spring arrivals Daphne Jane and Gabriana were already included on her list of family members, each of whom she prayed for by name every day.
