don imus funeral

His first gig was at KUTY in Palmdale, CA. Our thoughts are with Don Imus and his family during this difficult time. Don Imus was the controversial radio “shock jock” who hosted the popular longtime radio show “Imus in the Morning.”. He had big heart so caring. on the radio, then TV. I always admired the respect he showed MLK on his holiday. I was just a listener and I loved him and Fred.

To his mike drop. Was he a pioneer in his field? My heart goes out to you all. A lot of people were the but of your jokes but most important you could laugh at yourself. His love for Fred was endearing and his love for Wyatt and Deirdre was Obviously strong and true. I really enjoyed his show on MSNBC, RFDTV, and FBN. Liked Imus more than Stern, and they owned airwaves. A talent for radio, genius of writing and goader of those who would not speak the truth.

God Bless.

May he Rest In Peace.

I listened to Imus many years driving to work. Grew up in NYC listening to him and Howard Stern. Loved your tv shows throughout the years! I loved your gravely voice, Cowboy ways, humor and philanthropy. IMan was the best. A toast to one less racist in the world! I still think about that to this day. The Imus Ranch was sold in 2018 to a Nebraska TV mogul. Enjoyed the show from the early 80s. We love you. Didnt always care for some of the content but always cared for his huge heart and wit.

He brought insight and humor to the long miles of this old trucker.
Mr. Imus and his passion to take on the establishment are sorely missed. On one hand, an argument can be made against political correctness — what is comedy, really, if it doesn't push boundaries — but, on the other, any good comedian knows that "punching down" isn't true comedy, but merely insults. RIP. Let's look at what we know about Don Imus' cause of death, his controversial career, and his impact on the radio landscape. I discovered Imus on local radio in Raleigh 20 yrs.

Crossing the lines from the politically incorrect into the downright insulting, Imus fought with everyone from Howard Stern to the Rutgers Women's Basketball Team. Rest in peace, Don, we have the watch. © 2020 by Tango Media Corporation All Rights Reserved. Our thoughts are with Don Imus and his family during this difficult time. Now he and Fred are together making new jokes!! It was as if I knew you personally, and I wanted to just drop by to say hello (although you would have hated that : ) To Deirdre and Wyatt -- I pray that you will find peace in the midst of grief, and strength when you don't feel you can take another step. Shock jock no - genius yes. How did Don Imus die? At that time, he was a friend of Donald Trump and I will never forget the broadcast wherein he convinced Donald Trump to give money to a poor family down south whose father had committed suicide for the insurance money. He is missed. In loving memory of a wonderful person. Now hes at peace. You made radio worthy you made words worthwhile. While he will be known for his racist comment, he donated a fortune to children's hospitals and built ranch for kids with cancer.Complex guy. RIP Don Imus you ruled! All rights reserved (About Us).

And the day that Don Imus signed off for the last time, straight talk radio died. I never lived in New York, but WNBC was a legendary station. He raised the money for the intrepid hospital for wounded soldiers! We enjoyed watching your show in person and very much confirmed to your fans down here that your support for children, the militarys injured and who knows how many other causes you quietly supported was genuine. Ive loved the I Man since I was in high school in Jersey late 70s. I spent a lot of mornings watching "Imus in the Morning". John Donald Imus. JUST CRACKED ME UP. He adored Deidra and Wyatt. Thanks for the laughs over the years, God bless Deidre and Wyatt. Rest easy my friend. He may be gone, but never forgotten. Rest In Peace Don. Published in The Plain Dealer on Dec. 27, 2019. He kept this New Yorker sane in a non-NY state. On Friday, radio legend Don Imus died at the age of 79 in Texas, after being in declining health for a number of years. as you always said! Im proud of everything he did later in his life for charity. His cause of death has not been released. My condolences to Deidre and Wyatt. "I know in my heart there's been nobody ever better on the radio than me. He was my favorite! Rest ez I man, I started listening to you when I started my first year in college and took dads car to school. I think Don Imus was not only a unique talent with alot of humor that entertained so many listeners on radio.I enjoyed his interviews. I will continue to enjoy those memories...God Speed, sir..much love. MY BROTHER AND I WERE BORN IN HACKENSACK, NJ. I grew-up w/ the iMan only after he made his debut on MS-NBC dating as far back as '96 when I was a teen, as his show only broadcast in NYC metro-area market. From day one on the air in NY (was a little shocking after the previous DJ - believe it was Joe O'Brien?) He certainly filled a void in my life for an hour every morning.

Thank you for the fun times. One of a kind! But that praise was countered by many people who pointed out Imus’ history of misogynist and racist statements, and who questioned whether obituaries by the likes of the New York Times and Yahoo did enough to explore the damage caused by some of Imus’ actions, including the incident that got him fired in 2007, when he referred to the players on the Rutgers woman’s basketball team as “rough girls” and “nappy-headed ‘hos’”. You were the perfect mixture of great humor, current events , and politics.
