VALE REX COX

Sadly, one of the Southern Alps legends, Rex Cox, passed away on Sunday aged 98.
Rex was a remarkable man who had an incredible love of people, the mountains, skiing & bush walking.
He was a significant Southern Alps Life Member being Race Captain 1955-58, 1962-63, 1970, 1972-73, 1976-77, Club President 1974-75, 1984-85 and Lodge Director from 1963 to 1998.
Rex was to the fore in developing our Club races, Juniors program and the Cross Country & Bush Walking group.
Rex was also passionate about preservation of the mountain huts and therefore involved in the Kosciuszko Huts Association.

On members behalf, I have extended our deepest sympathy to Rex's partner, Joan Gardner.

A service will be held at Woronora Memorial Park, South Chapel on Monday 17th July at 12:00 midday.
Celebration of Rex's life will follow at "Club on East", 7 East Parade, Sutherland from 2:00 to 5:00pm.

Memorial donations can be made to Koscuiszko Huts Association via this link.
Please add "Rex Cox memorial donation" in the comments area.

Kind regards,
Rod Peile
President, SASC
