I was listening to Redfield yesterday when he announced Jerry Jones had passed away. Found nothing on the online news. Jerry was not that old.

I knew him and worked with him briefly. Super nice guy. He was the voice of the Mongoose and will be missed. He had many friends.

I was hoping you were talking about the owner of the Cowboys.

Wasn't he married to Kim Jones or maybe still was?

Jerry Jones was not married to Kim Jones. You're think of Rob Jones. Jerry wasn't married but had a long term girlfriend, Gloria. I believe he has two daughters from a previous marriage. He may have died of a heart attack but the cause of death hasn't been determined yet as far as I know.

Very sad news! He was a super nice guy and the voice of our radio ads.
He will be missed by many! The morning show on Mongoose will not be the same.....
RIP

The interesting thing about radio personalities is that, although they may die, their voice lives on. I have an old spot that Tom Yarborough did for us on my on-hold message and he died 5 years ago!

The spot Jerry did for us a few years ago will live on.

There is a memorial planned for Jerry at the Deep End Bar Sunday at 4 pm (I think 4 pm...check that). You can inquiry about the cause of death there.
