Drew was born in Abingdon and worked as the Operations Manager for Kustom Carriers trucking company. He was a veteran of the United States Navy.
Mutual love was the bond that connected Drew and his family. Aside from love, he connected with each of them differently. To some he was stubborn, a goof ball, and selfless. To others, he was one who loved the outdoors, was kind and spontaneous. To them all he was a great loving guy and was “Pappy” to Grayson and Haven.
Drew was predeceased by his father Charles Andrew Cox, Jr., maternal grandparents George and Nell Reasor and paternal grandparents Charles and Loretta Cox.
He is survived by his wife, Kimberly Matney Cox, mother and stepfather, Judy Cox Barker and Mike, children Reagan Cox, Dylan Cox, Mackenzie Keene and partner Josh Head, Lauren Roark and husband Tyler and their children Grayson and Haven, stepbrother Michael Barker.
