We would like to thank all of you for the outpouring of support and expressions of sympathy on the passing of our founder, long-time leader and father, Roger Cox.

Roger Cox was a classic American example of someone who came from humble beginnings, went on to become a force in his community, and who left an indelible mark on our industry and throughout the state. Roger Cox was an important citizen willing to contribute to the vision of creating community. He made the lives of a great many people in New Mexico better through his real estate prowess and never-ending perseverance. He was a self-made man and one of the key figures in the evolution of New Mexico real estate.

Roger Cox's legacy is a 50 Year Strong conglomerate representing several billion dollars worth of real estate transacted in New Mexico. He continued to bring together unique teams of extremely experienced professionals and specialists to sell, lease, develop and manage some of the most iconic and distinctive properties throughout the state. In 2012, over 275 transactions exceeding $100 million, including over 700,000 sq ft of leased space transactions were completed. Our current portfolio of managed properties exceeds 3 million square feet, with new properties being added to that portfolio.

Each of us at the Roger Cox Companies is not only carrying on Roger's vision, we are continuing to expand the companies that bear his name with pride, passion and gratitude.
