Ollie Dean Cox Plunkett, 94, of Edmond, Oklahoma passed away on Monday, February 19, 2018 in Edmond, Oklahoma. She was born on February 28, 1923 in Jones County, Texas to Samuel R. Cox, Jr. and Vera Ellen (Harris) Cox. Ollie married the love of her life, the late Dr. John William Plunkett, in Abilene, Texas in 1944. He preceded her in death.

While living in Denton for almost 50 years, Ollie was active in Faculty Wives Club, Garden Club, Gourmet Club, Aerial Club, and several different bridge groups.  She and her husband were involved in the Mean Green Club and attended numerous university events with their group of lifelong friends. Ollie had been looking forward to celebrating her 95th birthday this week. She loved telling stories about the doctor coming on horseback to deliver her, getting out of school on Friday afternoons when the chauffeur would pick up the grandchildren for the family lunch at the Cox's house and summer adventures with her grandsons when they would stay with her. Lately, her two great grandsons were her pride and joy.

She is preceded in death by her parents; Samuel and Vera Cox and an sister, Virgie Cox McGaha. Daughter, Pam Plunkett Kuzminski and husband Dan of Edmond, Oklahoma, two grandsons John Kuzminski and wife Jennifer of Tulsa and Sam Kuzminski and wife Andrea of Edmond, and two great grandsons Owen Kuzminski and Brecken Kuzminski survive Ollie.

The family will receive friends on Friday, March 2, 2018 at DeBerry Funeral Directors from 5-7 P.M. A graveside service will be held on March 3, 2018 at 10:00 at Roselawn Memorial Park in Denton, Texas.
