Terrell Johnson (T. C.) Cox

January 17, 1949 — October 2, 2019

Terrell Johnson (T. C.) Cox, son of Cecil and Maydell Johnson Cox, passed away suddenly on October 2, 2019 in Bethel Springs, TN. He was born in McNairy County, TN on January 17, 1949.

Terrell worked for the ICG Railroad and then owned Midtown/Terrell's Tires for many years. He had many customers and friends during those years and he loved each one.

He and his wife Kay loved to travel and vacationed in 47 states. They were at the World Trade Center South Tower 8 days before it fell. They owned a place at Pickwick, and loved camping and boating. There has never been a sweeter or nicer man than Terrell.

He leaves behind his beloved wife, Kay Duffey Johnson Cox; his precious grandsons, Luke and Levi Johnson, who affectionately called him Popeye; and many extended family and friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents; a step-son, Chris Johnson; a sister, Elois Cox Case; and two brothers, Dr. Elmo Cox and Jerry Donald Cox.
