Ronald “Ron” Lee Cox, 60, of Mooresville, N.C., passed away on June 12, 2021, at Waccamaw Community Hospital in Murrells Inlet, S.C.

Ron was a force of nature, determined to provide for his family and give them the life he thought they deserved. His family meant more to him than anything else in the world, which he showed though his work ethic and dedication. He always tried his best to support his family to the best of his ability and always made sure they never did without anything they needed. Ron had a heart of gold, always trying to help anyone whether he knew them or not.

Ron was passionate when it came to the Pittsburgh Steelers, always showing his pride all year long. If he was not home watching his team play, he could often be found at a nearby venue with other Steelers fans.
