Mrs. Jacot gave me the inspiration to follow my career in music. I pass along her value of good rhythm every day I teach my young oboists. She will be missed.

Deepest condolences to Ed and his family on Elizabeth's passing. She with Ed were the 'Grandparents' of the Youth Symphony of DuPage for many years. In part because of their leadership and commitment to early development in classical music, my daughter Debra is now a French Horn professional - 2nd Chair with New Mexico Symphony Orchestra and Principal with the Santa Fe Orchestra. Thank you for all that you've done. Peace to all.

Dear Ed and Family,

Tom and I are so sorry to hear of Liz's death. We both have wonderful memories of the music, the enthusiasm, and quick wit she provided at the piano for so many Grove Players musicals during the 1970' and 80s. She kept us on our toes and set the bar high for the quality of our music.

She will be dearly missed.
