On March 24, 2006, Fox walked off a bus from his second tour of duty in Iraq and into the arms of Lynsay, nine long months from when he last saw her. Exactly a year later, he knelt down at the foot of a bed in Atlantic City and placed an engagement ring on her finger. They became husband and wife in a military wedding on June 21, 2008.

At the cemetery, the hearse passed under a massive American flag, held billowing in the wind by two Plymouth Fire Company ladder trucks. More than one hundred K-9 officers lined the long driveway, guarding the hearse as it slowly entered.

A trust fund has been set up for Officer Fox's family and donations can be made to:
