‘The Monkees’ Davy Jones passed away today at age 66 – Kansas City Photographers

We were so sad to hear of the unexpected passing of Davy Jones today!  Davy was the lead singer of the iconic band, The Monkees… “Hey, hey, we’re the Monkees!”  We had the pleasure of photographing Davy Jones when he came to Kansas City as a celebrity for the Shadow Buddies Foundation charity event.  He was so lively and full of energy.  He was telling stories about his horses and his wife to all of his fans and having a great time.  I remember thinking to myself “I hope I look that young and have that much energy when I am in my 60s!”  It is so hard to believe that he is gone.  Peace be with him and his family!  These photos were taken at the Caeman Castle the night before the Shadow Buddies event where they had a special VIP dinner for a few of Davy’s select fans…
