Thomas Cox Obituary

Tom, we've known each other for 10 years in both Colorado and Michigan. I wish I had taken the time to see you since returning to Colorado 9 months ago with my family. You were always so charismatic and a joy to be around.

Tom you will be missed you were a great person to work with and an even better friend. My prayers are with you rest in peace.

Lori and Doug there are no words I can say to ease your pain. Please let Chriss or I know if there is anything we can do. (719)510-1399.

God took you in his loving arms, he only takes the best, to ease your pain and suffering and to give you a little rest.. Rest in Peace buddy

Tom,your death is a heartache no-one can heal but love leaves precious memories that no-one can ever steal, love you always xx

My sweet friend...It feels as if the sun was blown out the day you closed your eyes forever. The world is a darker place without your smile. I'll miss you forever. Rest In Peace ~ Tom

Tom was my childhood friend. I have not seen him in quite awhile, but from all accounts he was a fine man and will be missed. Rest in peace friend. You and your family will be in our prayers.

Tommy, I am reminded of the day you came over to Uncle Steves. Brent and I were in the back field with the 4 wheeler pulling eachother around in the snow. You came back and it was fun day trying to throw each other off.

much love,

Johnny

Brother, you will be missed always. Rest in peace. JC

Where did we meet? I don't remember....but all the places we ran into each other into each other in the many jobs we shared & the conversations we had will be remembered forever. Prayers for his family and loved ones.

You are going to be missed and my heart and prayer goes out to the family. Tom was a great and wonderful man and hero.
We often forget to tell the people in our lives how much they mean to us until it's too late and for this I'm am deeply saddened.
You will live forever in our hearts and memories.
Rest in Peace !!

My thoughts and prayers go out to family and friends. Growing up, I always thought we were cousins. I will treasure the memories I have from when we were kids. Rest in peace Tommy. You will forever remain in all of our hearts. God Bless.

Wow Tom, how can anyone really say how stunned we are by your death? My mind keeps bringing your image to me with you being such a silly, happy, full of life guy! Are we gonna miss you when you should have been coming home to Michigan for a visit? You bet we are!! We loved listening to your Police, EMS, and Fire stories. When you were fresh out of high school and sharing your dreams and plans of what you wanted to do when you grew up...still brings a smile to my face. Remembering you as an Explorer at OTR with my son also makes me smile. You were so gung ho! We are truely blessed for having known you. You will be fondly remembered and sorely missed! May God hold you in his arms, and may he ease the pain your family is suffering. We loved you and we will miss you.

Tom you will be missed... I havent seen you since after high school.

Many thoughts and prayers for Tom's family through this difficult time. Lori, We cannot express how sorry I am that you are going through this.

The shock of your death has finally settled in, I wish i had told you how important you were to our family. I wish I had said thank you one more time for helping us find our grandson. Cripple Creek has lost a hero, a role model, a friend. If I had only known... Rest in peace Dear Friend.

Tom, I will miss you so much. You were a best friend, a best paramedic partner, you were a best firefighter, and a very best cop. You touched a lot of people's lives in Teller County. I wish I had spent more time with you. Please say hello to Brent. I will see you again someday.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Tom's family. He was such a wonderful person and meant so much to so many people. I will forever miss our teasing of each other and seeing your face around the creek.

May you rest in peace Tom, you were a good kind man who loved deeply.
May God bestow tender mercies on your family.

Our prayer for you is from Isaiah 41:13 (New King James Version)

For I, the LORD your God, will hold your right hand,
Saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’

We join the support of so many upholding you in prayer.

Dale & Patty Deniston

Tom you just do not know how much the boys and I miss you. You have always been in our hearts and always will. We miss and love you.

You touched so many lives with your sunshine, you were a great friend and will be missed! May God wrap his comforting arms around your family and all who loved you.

Lori...words always seems so inadequate at a time like this. I hope that all the great memories you have of Tom will help carry you thought this very difficult time

My heart goes out to you Lori.

Tommy, I so wish you would just show up at our door like so many times before. I wish you knew how important and loved you are by your family and friends. We have so many great memories as children and growing adults, but we are having the hardest time accepting that there will be nomore to come. Even with all the miles between, you were and will always be a member of the original eight. Until we can laugh together again. Give Grandma the biggest hug for us and may you please be resting in peace.
With smiles, tears and love,
Heidi Maurer and Family
