Garland Michael "Mike" Cox - Madison Parish, Louisiana
October 28, 1964 ~ January 29, 2022 (age 57)
From Crothers-Glenwood Funeral Home Tallulah. LA February 1, 2022

Garland Michael "Mike" Cox of Tallulah, Louisiana, passed away at Christus St. Frances Cabrini Hospital - Alexandria on Saturday, January 29, 2022, at the age of 57. Mike touched countless lives during those 57 years, filling each moment with so much love and laughter. A few of “Chopper’s” favorite hobbies included spending Saturdays with his friends to work on his budding golf career, maintaining endless hope for LSU football with his brother, Billy Cox, and sister-in-law, Thelma Cox, taking road trips and modeling matching outfits with his son, Brady Cox, chasing the ice cream truck with his bonus-son, Landon Taylor, video chatting with his daughter, Kasey Netherland, to talk about everything important and nothing at all, and dancing to Bruno Mars while sharing a “pockle” (popsicle) with his two year old granddaughter, Isla Netherland.

Mike was proud of his family and centered his life around them, putting their needs before his own. Over the last year, Mike was often found simultaneously taking care of his mother, Ada Louise Cox, running Brady between school and sports, and babysitting Isla. This was Mike at his core, serving other people with purpose.

Mike held true to his faith as a Christian man and has now joined his father, Clayton Wells Cox, and daughter, Jenny Lynn Cox, in Heaven. Although Mike left this Earth too early, he will continue to live on in the hearts and memories of the lives he touched so deeply.

A visitation for Mike will be held on Wednesday, February 2, 2022, at First Baptist Church of Tallulah (700 Bayou Drive; Tallulah, LA 71282) at 12:00 PM followed by the funeral service at 1:00 PM with Dr. Jason McGuffie and Rev. Jay Parker officiating. Burial will follow the funeral service at Memorial Park Cemetery in Tallulah under the direction of Crothers-Glenwood Funeral Home in Tallulah.

Pallbearers will be Kirk Morley, Chris Cagnolatti, Dickie Thomas, Buddy Caldwell, John Tony, and Donald Wells. Honorary Pallbearers will be David Cagnolatti, Mac Cagnolatti, George Bachelor, Bull Frierson, Stoney Goodman, and Jason Nolan

In lieu of flowers, the family has established a college fund for Brady Cox, minored by custodian, Kasey Netherland, at Guaranty Bank & Trust (13 Crothers Drive; Tallulah, LA 71282).

Chopper, Mike, Brother, Papaw, Son, Dad…we miss you dearly but find comfort in knowing that we will see you again soon.
