The great actor from the Monkees Davy Jones just died. Davy was 66.
British-born star Davy Jones discovered fame in the sixties with the Monkees group which had a TV series of the same name.
Davy Jones and the Monkeys unfortunately split in 1971. Davy Jones and the Monkeys went their own ways.
Monkee Mike Nesmith, in his loving and lengthy post on Facebook.com wrote, “That David has stepped beyond my view causes me the sadness that it does many of you. I will miss him, but I won’t abandon him to mortality. I will think of him as existing within the animating life that insures existence. I will think of him and his family with that gentle regard in spite of all the contrary appearances on the mortal plane."
Nesmith also said, “David's spirit and soul live well in my heart, among all the lovely people, who remember with me the good times, and the healing times, that were created for so many, including us. I have fond memories. I wish (Davy Jones) safe travels.”
