Everyone at Deane Media Solutions is deeply saddened by the unexpected passing of our friend Jonathan Reed, PD for iHeartMedia Top 40 WNOK/Columbia, SC. Reed had suffered a serious head injury late last week after a fall in his apartment. He subsequently passed away Monday evening (2/24) at 8:55pm EST.
Reed had been a longtime fixture at WNOK. Prior to that, he had programming stops at sister Top 40 WAEV (97.3 Kiss FM)/Savannah, Top 40 KHFI (96.7 Kiss FM) and Rhythmic KPEZ (102.3 The Beat)/Austin, TX. He also spent time at WFKS (Kiss 95.1)/Jacksonville, WRVQ (Q94)/Richmond, WZEE (Z104)/Madison, KQKQ/Omaha, KSLZ/St. Louis and WABB/Moblile.
We send our deepest condolences to his family, his mother and father Verla & Jerry Reed, his sister Jerilyn, and his many friends and iHeartMedia colleagues.
JR is being remembered with love via the many postings on his Facebook page. Information on services is still pending.
