SEATTLE, Wash. (Nov. 18, 2009) -- Two-time Professional Bowlers Association Tour champion Darylee Cox of Centralia, Wash., died Wednesday at age 72. Cox was a topflight bowler in the Northwest and he defeated two of PBA’s all-time greats in winning his titles. In the 1962 Silver Lanes Open in Spokane, Wash., as an amateur he defeated Harry Smith in the final game of the tournament for the title, and in 1963, he won the Portland PBA Open by defeating Billy Hardwick in the final game. According to long-time friend Gary Cooper, Cox died of respiratory failure as a result of complications from lung cancer. Per Cox’s request no services are immediately planned.
