Cox had been with the department for 12½ years.

His brother, Ervin, remembered him on Facebook, writing, "My heart is hurting because my baby brother was murdered today by the shooter in Virginia Beach mass shooting.

"I won't hear his beautiful singing voice at church or home anymore. I loved my brother and will truly miss his caring soul. Until we meet again in heaven."

In the video below, Cox can be seen on the far left, leading his church's band in a song.

Virginia Beach shooting survivor Christi Dewar believes she might not still be here had it not been for the actions of her coworker.
