Deputy Cox,

Thank you for you service and for your sacrifice. I was saddened to hear that such a great citizen and deputy such as yourself was taken so violently and way way to soon. I hope others will follow in your footsteps to making our community a better place. May God be with your family and friends in their time of need and sorrow. Thank you again Deputy Cox, you will not be forgotten.

Words come difficult when a BROTHER in blue is lost at the hands of a cowardly act. May GOD bless you, your family and the King County Sheriff's Department at this most difficult time.

Deputy Cox, my brother responded to you that night. My dad called to tell me, but I haven't been able to get ahold of my brother to see how he's coping. I am so sorry this has happened to you. It just breaks me that you and your wife and baby don't get to spend the Holidays together because you were just doing your job. I don't understand why these things happen to the best officers. My heart is with your family and the Sheriffs Dept. Take care of each other in the tough times ahead.

Steve, I did not know you personally, but it didn't matter, you were a brother in our law enforcement family. I pray for your family, friends and co-workers that they keep the faith while you watch over them as their guardian angel. Rest in peace knowing that we will not forget you or what you gave to the community.

"We Remember the Officers"
We remember the officers who changed our lives,
The men and woman who protected us day and night,
People who respect for their dedication to the cause,
For when faced with danger, they never even pause.

We remember the officers who always stood true,
Whatever the color of uniform, brown gray or blue,
With pride and integrity they say "To serve and protect",
For the giving of their life, we offer our respect.

We remember the officers who we never really knew,
Persons strong enough to answer the challenge are few,
With heavy hearts we mourn the officers in eternal rest,
There's more to these people than the badge on their chest.
By Brad Miller

Deputy Sheriff Steve Cox, may you rest in peace.

Brother-

Though we worked at different Precincts and never formally met, I'm sure we've crossed paths. I've heard nothing but praise about the partner and friend you were from those who knew you better than I. God be with you and your family, partner.
