Margaret Turner Cox
March 06, 1926 - March 09, 2010
Margaret Turner Cox, 84, wife of the late Joe Cox Captain Sandy, and beloved mother of Cindy Cox, died Tuesday, March 9, 2010 after a brief illness. Margaret was born in Lexington, KY on March 6, 1926 and resided in Savannah with her husband and daughter from 1965. Margaret pursued a career as a travel agent for many years, and her adventurous spirit took her and daughter Cindy to some interesting corners of the world. She is also survived by her brother Joe; her stepdaughters, Terry Cox and Connie Hicks; Connie's daughters, Bekah Hicks and Hannah Zeno, and Hannah's son Aden. Margaret will be most remembered by her family and many friends for her big heart, her love of life and her care and compassion for anyone in need, especially her precious animal friends.

Such a big hearted woman for family, friends and of course her love for animals. My brother and I have called her Aunt Maggie for our entire lives and have such fond memories with her. Aunt Donna has always considered Aunt Maggie as her sister and not an in-law! We will miss our great phone calls and times we have spent over the years. We love you! Cindy we are here for you!
