Susan “Kathy” Cox passed away peacefully with her children beside her on August 20, 2020 in Centralia, WA at the age of 70. Kathy was born October 31, 1949 to Bill and Wava Turner in Chehalis. She resided the majority of her adult life in Centralia with her husband Lee, who she preceded in death as well as both her parents and infant sister.

Lee and Kathy were married on July 3, 1968 in Olympia, WA and are survived by daughters Kim (Joe) Mask of Chehalis and Kelli Jett; and son Kory (Lola) Cox of Tumwater. Her other surviving family include bothers Sam and Bill (Sheryl) Turner of Olympia and sister Karen (Sparky) Bland of Elma, four granddaughters, three grandsons and two great-granddaughters as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Kathy loved camping with her husband in Ocean Shores, NASCAR, football, baseball, her dogs, the waitstaff at Bub’s Pub and giving the middle finger to everyone.
