COX Inspirational Student
2008 HERO Award
"The hero is one who kindles a great light in the world, who sets
up blazing torches in the dark streets of life for men to see by."
(Felix Adler)
"The quote by educator Felix Adler aptly describes the effect our 2008
Cox Inspirational Heroes have on everyone they touch! These young
people have faced challenges that most of us haven't, and yet they
still love and live life to the fullest.
On behalf of our Cox Gulf employees, it is my great honor to pay
tribute to these student heroes and to encourage them to continue
shining their light of hope that inspires us all." (L. Keith
Gregory, Vice President and General Manager Cox Gulf Coast)
Faun's teacher Kenny Meadows nominated her because of her bravery and
determination. In spite of burns and treatments that qualified her for
the home-bound program she attends school, maintains an A/B average,
sings in the chorus and faces every obstacle with determination and
hope for the future. She was honored at the 14th Annual Awards
Ceremony at New World Landing.
