Leslie O.

He was the fifth of nine children born Dec. 15, 1928; his siblings are Erma Cox Askew, James Walter Cox (deceased), Milton Lawrence Cox (deceased), M. Grace Cox- Stephenson (deceased); Helen Cox Pree (deceased); Alma Cox Crawford, Edgar A. Cox (deceased), and Charles L. Cox (aka Bilial Yasin). Leslie was educated in the public schools of Portsmouth. At age 16, he joined the Coast Guard and returned home a more mature and determined person. He graduated from I.C. Norcom High School in 1948, and attended the Norfolk division of Virginia State College with a double major in special education and psychology. Leslie also further studied psychology at Hampton Institute. After working at the Norfolk Post Office as a clerk, he began his brilliant career in education as a special education teacher, assistant principal, principal and counselor in various schools in Portsmouth. He retired in 1991. Anyone who met Leslie quickly realized they were in the presence of a deeply intelligent, insightful and empathetic person. In his private life, whether dealing with his wife, children and siblings - he delighted in them and loved them unconditionally. In the 1970s, Leslie, wife Claudine and children were among the first African-Americans in Portsmouth to attend and join the Lutheran Church.
