Jason A. Cox Memorial Nursing Scholarship Class of 2006
Jason A. Cox graduated from Herscher High School in 2006 and from Nashville Auto Diesel College in 2007. Jason loved working on his lowered truck; building it from scratch. He enjoyed throwing sparks and spending time with his friends in it. His other loves were BMX biking, dirt bikes, 4-wheelers, and snowmobiles. Just about anything with wheels. But, his GXR 1000 was his greatest joy on wheels. Jason worked at Shapiro with challenged men. They were Jason’s family as Jason was a “brother” to them. This is where he found his calling to care for others and decided to go into nursing. If you ever met Jason, you would have known that he was kind, loving and caring for others. He always had a smile on his face and enjoyed life to the fullest. We pray that the Jason A. Cox Memorial Nursing Scholarship will help you carry out your dreams of becoming a nurse. We know Jason wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. Sincerely, The Cox Family
