Donna J. Cox, strong, determined

Donna J. Cox, 71, of Georgetown passed away peacefully Saturday, Oct. 19, 2019, due to complications from lymphoma.  She was born Oct. 23, 1947, to Carol and Vesta Dorman. She married her soulmate and true love, William "Sonny" Cox, in December 1962, who preceded her in death in 2003.

Donna loved helping people and served for 40 years in the ministry alongside her husband. She loved sewing, doing crafts, and going camping and to horse shows with her daughter. Donna was a talented musician and director of dinner theater.

Donna's life was a living example of her favorite Bible verse, Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Her life was a daily example of strength and determination.

In addition to her parents, Donna is preceded in death by her brother, Leon; and her sister, Joyce. She is survived by three children: Denean, Jarrod and Joel; five brothers: Jerry, Dan, David, Tim and Ladell; six grandchildren; and many nephews and nieces. All of these she loved deeply.

Please join the family in celebrating her life Tuesday, Oct. 29, at 2 p.m., at the First Baptist Church of Crisfield, 1 S Somerset Ave., Crisfield, Md.

Arrangements are being handled by Parsell Funeral Homes & Crematorium, Dodd-Carey Chapel, Georgetown.
