SEDALIA — Dorothy Mae Cox, 91, of Sedalia was called home by her Lord and Savior on December 1, 2016.
She was born on January 8, 1925 in Omaha, NE, the daughter of Emmet and Mae (Zimmerman) Scott, who preceded her in death. In 1962, in Kansas City, MO she was united in marriage to James Cox, who preceded her in death in April of 1969.
Dorothy enjoyed cooking for family, her Sunday paper and company. She was a master at elephant ears, lasagna, and strong coffee. Always ready with a joke and a sympathetic ear she will be dearly missed.

Besides her husband, she was preceded in death by two daughters, Vicki Paul and Christie Wilson.
