On and off over the years I lived in the NYC area and listened to Imus. He was great but declined over the years as do we all.

Don Imus RIP

No details yet on plans for a service. However, the family has requested that for memorial donations be made to the Imus Ranch Foundation, which supports charities for children with cancer and other major illnesses.

The Imus Ranch in New Mexico became such an integral part of Imus later life that he moved production of his radio and TV shows. The summer spot for children with cancer — which opened in 1998 to offer young people the “cowboy” experience” — closed in 2014 after Imus broke his ribs in a fall and was unable to breathe at high altitude, according to The Non-Profit Times, which reported on the ranch’s sale.

I believe he was diagnosed with prostrate cancer back in 2009, so he knew he was on borrowed time I reckon. That borrowed time turned out to be quite a while. 8>)

I just didn't get Imus. Howard Stern was crude but funny, and I was more into that kind of shock jock talk back in the 1990's, but every time I listened to Imus I wasn't impressed.

Same with Paul Finebaum.

Gee, no mention of the outrage of his epic take-down of the clintons at the correspondents dinner?

Good friends with Levon Helm who preceded him to the end. RIP Imus.

Thanks for the memories Iman. One of the only shows I’d ever actually watched MSNBC for over the years. Such a long successful run and McCord and McGuirk were such great sidekicks.

RIP Iman
