RIP, Ramona Bell

Ramona Bell, wife of late-night radio king Art Bell, died unexpectedly Thursday night after an asthma attack, according to Whitley Strieber's Unknown Country website. She was 47.

Ramona sometimes appeared on the show with Art and, according to Unknown Country, she and the talk-show master "had not been apart a day since they were married" 15 years ago.

While Art hasn't been on the air so much lately due to a series of family and health problems, the show he started, Coast to Coast AM, continues to rule the nighttime airwaves and has been a frequent companion on many TDA road trips.

Rest in peace, Ramona, and our hearts go out to Art and his family.

He, Bill -- that's cool you're a ham and got to talk to Art once. I've always wondered what that whole scene is like.
