Jim died Nov. 2, 2018, in Thomasville, Ga. He was 82.

He came to Princeton from the Gilman School, where he participated in football, tennis, and debating. At Princeton he majored in religion, was a member of Quadrangle Club and of the 150-pound crew, and managed the student center. He lived in 16 Blair and roomed with Gary Carr, Pete Nichols, Bill Whitehurst, Barry Myers, Vic Hurst, and Bob Johnston.

He earned a degree in theological studies from the Church Divinity School of the Pacific in Berkeley and a Ph.D. from Florida State University.

Jim loved his wife, his grandchildren, breakfast for dinner, the inner game of golf, Søren Kierkegaard, and great conversations.

Jim is survived by his wife of 58 years, Juanita; children James S. Cox III, Katherine Pyle, and Alice Bergeson; and grandchildren Chelsea Pyle, McKenna Crick, Hyatt Pyle, John Yearsley, Victoria Bergeson, Cameron Cox, and Andrew Cox. The class extends its deepest sympathy to them all.
