He was born in Tulsa, OK.\r\n \r\nHe is survived by his loving wife, Linda; sons, Jeff and Jason; brother, Walt; grandchildren, Emily and Austin; great granddaughters, Ellie and Melody.\r\n \r\nChief Cosby served proudly in the United States Navy from 1964-1986. He was an aviation electrician mate serving on several aircraft carriers. He volunteered for recruiting duty and moved to Kerrville in 1981 with his family, where they still reside.
