It is with great sorrow that we announce the sudden passing of Edward L Cox on November 2, 2018, in Silverton, OR. Ed had just turned 80, and he and his wife, Leta M (Woodard) Cox, just celebrated 61 years of marriage.

Ed was born on October 4, 1938, in Ringling, OK. He was one of six boys, born to Roy and Nola Cox (Huff). The family moved to Bakersfield, California when Ed was about 10 yrs. Bakersfield is where Ed met the love of his life, Leta. They eloped and married in 1957.

Ed worked in the RV industry in California in the 50's and 60's before moving his family to Oregon in 1967, where he jump-started the RV repair business in the Willamette Valley. He has been repairing, servicing, restoring, and manufacturing classic and modern RVs ever since. When Ed wasn't working on RVs, he and Leta enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, sports, trips to the casino, and family get togethers.

Ed will be deeply missed by his wife, Leta (Woodard) Cox, daughter, Sherry Taylor [Rick] of Salem, son, Guy Cox of Salem; grandchildren: Melissa Bartolome [Patrick] of Salem, DJ Moullet of Salem, Beth Debus [Tony] of Jefferson, Travis Taylor of Salem, Amanda Richardson of Brownsville, Shelbi Cox of Nashville, TN, Annie Taylor of Salem and 6 great-grandchildren: Corbin Bartolome, Trevor Taylor, Colin Bartolome, Kimberly Bartolome, Genevieve Taylor and Ashton Taylor, four brothers, and numerous nieces and nephews.
