Abilene community starts memorial at Premier Martial Arts to honor Grand Master James Cox
ABILENE, Texas () – The Abilene community has started a memorial outside Premier Martial Arts to honor the life to Grand Master James Cox.
Grand Master Cox died unexpectedly last week, leaving behind not only friends and family, but also students, peers, and mentees who he encountered and made a huge impact on in the Martial Arts world.
Flowers, photos, candles, and other mementos are now starting to decorate Premier Partial Arts locations on S 14th Street and Buffalo Gap Road, where he owned the business and taught many his deep knowledge of the craft.
Anyone who wants to help Grand Master Cox's family can also attend the Abilene Livestock Auction Tuesday, May 13, where a donated calf will be auctioned off at 11:00 a.m.
All proceeds will go to his family to help with funeral expenses.
