I keep reading all the beautiful condolences that people are writing about how much a part of their lives were effected by listening to him over the years.
The Imus Ranch Foundation was formed to donate 100% of all donations previously devoted to The Imus Ranch for Kids with Cancer to various other charities whose work and missions compliment those of the ranch.

Children’s Health Defense joins parents of vaccine-injured children and advocates for health freedom in remembering the life of Don Imus, a media maverick in taking on uncomfortable topics that most in the mainstream press avoid or shut down altogether. His commitment to airing all sides of controversial issues became apparent to the autism community in 2005 and 2006 as the Combating Autism Act (CAA) was being discussed in Congress. The Act, which was ultimately signed into law by George W. Bush in December of 2006, created unprecedented friction among parents of vaccine-injured children and members of Congress; parents insisted that part of the bill’s billion-dollar funding be directed towards environmental causes of autism including vaccines, while most U.S. Senators and Representatives tried to sweep any such connections under the rug.
Don Imus, Divisive Radio Shock Jock Pioneer, Dead at 79 - Imus in the Morning host earned legions of fans with boundary-pushing humor, though multiple accusations of racism and sexism followed him throughout his career By Kory Grow RollingStone
Don Imus Leaves a Trail of Way More Than Dust
By Michael Riedel - The one and only time I had a twinge of nerves before appearing on television was when I made my debut in 2011 on “Imus in the Morning” on the Fox Business Channel. I’d been listening to Don Imus, who died Friday at 79, since the 1990s as an antidote the serious (bordering on the pompous) hosts on National Public Radio. I always thought it would be fun to join Imus and his gang — news anchor Charles McCord, producer Bernard McGuirk, comedian Rob Bartlett — in the studio, flinging insults back and forth at one another. And now I had my chance. I was invited on to discuss to discuss “Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark,” the catastrophic Broadway musical that injured cast members daily.
In a strange turn of events, Carl "Two Questions" Jeffers became Carl "Have you lost your mind" Jeffers, because he had, in Imus's view, gone completely insane. First of all, Carl, Imus discovered you, so don't be going on other shows with people like Neil Cavuto. Second, do not defend the Secret Service.
Carl Jeffers Today's interview with Matt Taibbi began with talk of Imus's cancer, and ended with much of the same. In the interim, Taibbi killed President Obama's economic policies and advisors, which he does at length in his latest Rolling Stone article, Obama's Big Sellout.
Matt Taibbi There's zero chance that Bo Dietl was in Florida with Tiger Woods in the aftermath of his "car accident" last Friday, but Imus allowed him to prattle on about it anyway. "Tiger has been with me on numerous occasions," Bo insisted. Maybe, but this past weekend was probably not one of them.
Bo Dietl Imus welcomed Frank Rich to the show this morning, and expressed his profound hope that his guest had a better Thanksgiving holiday than, say, Tiger Woods did. Rich felt some sympathy toward Woods, whose "minor car accident" in the wee hours of Friday morning is looking more and more like a domestic dispute between Woods and his wife.
Frank Rich Imus loves Phil Simms, and Phil Simms loves Imus. Isn't that great? "This is making me uncomfortable," Imus told Simms, who was in a good mood this morning. So why not make every attempt to ruin his Thanksgiving cheer? "I'm going to paint a scenario here, tell me if it's funny," Imus said to his guest. "The Rockefeller Christmas tree falls over into the ice rink. Nobody's injured. Funny or not?"
