Mr. Williston Madison Cox III

To the entire Cox family, my deepest sympathy. Maddy and I were friends since the first grade and we used to play together at his house in Louisville. We used to chase the burros and try to sit on them. As we grew to be teenagers, we spent many happy times together along with our friend, Alice Orr Sprague, at the lake, riding on Maddy's father's (Williston) cabin cruiser up and down Fort Loudon Lake. I forgot to mention that

I forgot to mention that Polly was always with us as well. Maddy was a good friend. I will always remember his laugh, his quiet gentleness, and his sense of humor. I remember once that Maddy, Alice, Rick Kuhlman and myself went to the fair at Chilhowee Park. We stuffed ourselves with hamburgers, french fries and milkshakes. Then we got on the Tilt-A-Whirl and Maddy threw up all over me. I looked at him and we both started laughing.
My memories are many and they will keep Madison alive in my heart forever.

Sincere condolences to your branch of the Williams family on the loss of Madison. May you receive Peace and Grace in this difficult time.

I have known Madison since grammar school. We have spent a lof of time together with school, ice hockey, motorcycles & some scuba diving. We did a lot of exploring on the farm and lake in his little boat arount the inlets to Sheep Pen Bluffs, with all sorts of mischief that was part of the fabric of young lives. We spent some memorable time in Elkmont with close friends and more mischief. I will always fondly remember both of

We did a lot of exploring on the farm and lake in his little boat arount the inlets to Sheep Pen Bluffs, with all sorts of mischief that was part of the fabric of young lives. We spent some memorable time in Elkmont with close friends and more mischief. I will always fondly remember both of Madison's grandmothers, his parents and his sister Polly and the generous way they included me in their lives. I came to know this is just how the Cox/Powers family was and this remain a standard I want to which I always strive.

We lost track of each other as we took our seperate career paths, but I would hear from mutual friends from time to time of his successes and how his earlier motorcycle crashes began to take its toll on him physically. I choose to remember the good times we had and some of the sentinel events as what it was like to share our life experiences. I will especially miss the mischievous twinkle in his eye and his sense of humor.

Good-bye old friend I will miss you!

I will always remember Madison with twinkling dancing eyes and a friendly greeting. Youth memories with our parents on the lake, dear frienships that lasted a lifetime, and Madison and Polly were the best of times. My heart goes out to Kerela and Polly and the whole family.

My thoughts and prayers are for the wife and children of Madison and his sister Polly.

He and his family have been close friends to our family family for generations.
My son Allen. a Top Gun Fighter pilot, and childhood friend of Madison, is now in Heaven with his father Laurance, another Angel Pilot.

I have admired the Cox family, their values, and their work ethic, and patriotism since childhood.

Kerla My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. He was a good friend and we will all miss him.

kerela have you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. so very sorry for losing madison. love andy
