Cox is the beloved daughter of the late Queen Esther Moseley White Brown and the late Joseph White Sr. She is one of eight children who were raised by their mother, who was the queen of their hearts and who was a very affectionate and noble person. Joann’s mother always gave her an affirmative reply when she asked a question. Her father played a small role in her childhood, but that changed, and they became close when he relocated to another state. Later on in life, her mother met Tommie L. Brown, and he helped rear Joann and her siblings. Joann loved and respected her mother to the fullest. Her mother was a strong woman, and she instilled in Joann the significance of always putting God first in her life as she was growing up and becoming a woman. She also told her how important it is to always belong to a church that she can call her church home and the importance of a family being connected to one another.
Joann was married to the late Ira S. Cox, and she was a devoted, faithful military spouse for years. She lost her husband at an early age when he was only thirty-seven years old. From that union, two children were born. Joann is the very proud mother of her two children, Kennesha E. Cox and Dominique D. Cox. She is blessed by the best, none other than the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Later through the years, Joann met William E. Newsome Jr. who is the love of her life, and she is very content with him. With God’s grace and William’s assistance, she was able to send her kids to college to get a better education. They truly feel gratified, and they are very grateful for all that he has done and all that he will continue to do.
Joann is the grandmother of Jahquine T. Cox and Jahzya T. Cox. Her grandkids are the apple of her eye. Joann’s first priority is making sure that her family is all right on a daily basis. Joann is a fun person to be around. She is very strong in speaking her mind. Joann loves real people, and some of her hobbies are fund-raising, dancing, listening to oldies but goodies, shopping, taking trips to casinos, playing cards, talking on the telephone, and listening to gospel music. She has also always enjoyed helping the elderly in any way she can in her spare time. Joann’s door has always been open to neighborhood children, family, and friends for a home-cooked meal. She is known as one of the best cooks around.
