Alan Colmes, 1950-2017
Statement on the Passing of Alan Colmes
Alan Colmes passed away early Thursday, February 23, after a brief illness.
He was 66 years old.
He leaves his adoring and devoted wife, Jocelyn Elise Crowley.
He was a great guy, brilliant, hysterical, and moral. He was fiercely loyal, and the only thing he loved more than his work was his life with Jocelyn.
He will be missed.
The family has asked for privacy during this very difficult time.

Alan, I will miss you a great deal. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, humor, and outlook with us on talk radio. You were a healthy dose of common sense and a welcomed voice on the radio that I looked forward to hearing. Condolences to the Colmes family.

I am a conservative – feel very sad to hear this. I did not agree with Mr. Colmes political views – but he came across as an intelligent decent person – RIP sir.

This is just too sad for words.

I must be one of this longest fans – going back to his Daynet days.
That’s most of my adult life! His positive and fair voice has been a kind of a constant for me.
Anomaly 100 February 23rd, 2017 at 13:18
He’s already missed.

I’ve been missing Alan the last few weeks.
The substitute hosts are fine but Alan was such an unusual collection of good traits.
