Obituary: Jo Cox, 80, Dies
Wednesday, April 08, 2009
Jo Cox, 80, a private piano teacher, died of pancreatic cancer on March 26, 2009 at Sibley Hospital.
Cox moved to McLean in 1971. From 1976 until her death, she volunteered with The Hospitality and Information Service, an organization dedicated to fostering relationships within the area’s diplomatic community. She was a passionate cook as well as an avid watercolorist.
Cox was born to Canadian parents, Robert Jack and Dorothy Duncan Flatt, in Chicago and was raised in Thunder Bay, Ontario. She was a graduate of the Letchford School of Design in Toronto. While living in Canada, she worked as a character actress for national radio programs.
In 1948, she moved to Houston, Texas with her then-husband David Lowe Stirton. Cox raised six children in Houston. The couple divorced in 1966 and Cox began teaching piano privately. She wed John B. Cox in 1967 and moved to Lake Valhalla in Morris County, N.J. Jo and John were married for 40 years.
She is survived by husband John B. Cox of McLean,
former husband David Lowe Stirton of Houston, Texas,
twins Kirk Stirton of New Orleans, La. and Lindy Stirton of McLean [Virginia],
twins Heather Stirton Gradison of Washington, D.C. and Betsy Stirton Nugent of Manassas, Va. (husband Steve Nugent),
