Jean Pershica, of Durant, Oklahoma, passed away on April 24, 2024, at the age of 72. She was born on September 29, 1951, to Clyde Lester and Erma Thelma (McDaniel) Cox in Durant, Oklahoma.
Jean's life was a testament of hard work and love of family. This was evident when she helped raise her niece Christi Cox and nephew Michael Cox. Jean worked diligently as a nighttime associate at Wal-Mart, where she was not only a dedicated employee but also a friend to many. Her work ethic and warm personality left a lasting impression on all who had the pleasure of working alongside her. She was known for her love of coffee. She enjoyed making crafts, solving crossword puzzles, and immersing herself in the pages of a good book.
Those left to cherish her memory are her daughters, Wendy Harrington of Calera and Robbie Pershica of Durant. Her brothers, Utah Cox of Durant, Ray Cox of Jefferson, Texas, and Lester Cox of Spanaway, Washington, will fondly remember their sister's vibrant spirit. Jean's legacy continues through her cherished grandchildren: Jessica Millard, Veronica Harrington, Phoenix Anderson, Joseph Perkins, Jacob Gideon, Lucious Madrid, Ethan Meyer, Meara Meyer, James Harrington, Jr., Kala Janczyk, Bryan Harrington, Hope Harrington, Samantha Harrington, and Randy Harrington, as well as her 23 great-grandchildren who brought her immense joy.
She was preceded in death by her mother Erma Cox, father Clyde Cox, brother Otto Cox, daughter Jody Cox, great-niece Chasity Cox and her infant son Eli.
