Fred Imus, Radio Personality and Songwriter, Dies at 69

Fred Imus, a country songwriter and radio personality who appeared frequently on his older brother Don’s radio show, was found dead in his trailer in Tucson, Ariz., on Saturday. He was 69.

He died in his sleep, said Matthew Hiltzik, a spokesman for Don Imus.

Mr. Imus appeared on country radio shows, most recently co-hosting “Fred’s Trailer Park Bash” on Sirius XM Radio, with a politically incorrect style like his brother’s. He produced Don’s show for a time and called in for decades, becoming “a regular guest who wouldn’t leave,” Mr. Imus said through Mr. Hiltzik.
