Cowboys super fan ``Crazy Ray'' dies at 76


DALLAS (AP) -Wilford ``Crazy Ray'' Jones, the boisterous Dallas Cowboys fan who energized crowds for decades with his cowboy getup and sideline cheerleading, died Saturday. He was 76.
Jones died at his home, said Tracy Moberly, a friend of the family. Diabetes and cardiovascular disease were listed as the causes of death, according to the Dallas County medical examiner's office.
``He touched thousands of lives and generations of football fans,'' Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on the team's Web site. ``He will remain an important part of this team's heritage and family for as long as fans go to Cowboys games and feel his spirit.''

I will always remember "Crazy Ray" with fond memories. Although a Redskin fan, "Crazy Ray" always made me laugh as he cheered on his Boys. You will be missed.
