What Happened to Ramona Jones, Wife of Grandpa Jones?

When it comes to the Grand Ole Opry and country music, the Q & A Lady is the first to admit she hasn’t seen and done it all. She’s equally quick, however,  to add that she’s been lucky to see and do quite a little bit, and she’s happy to share her country insight with readers each week. She knows her Con Hunley from her John Conlee and her “Your Cheatin’ Heart” from her “Achy Breaky Heart.” If you have a question about country music you’d like to submit for her to consider answering, you’re welcome to do so here. Or you can just drop by each week to read her responses to other inquiries from across the country and around the globe. You just might learn a fun fact or two along the way.

Answer

Hi Bob,

I’m happy to report Ms. Ramona is alive and well. You’re not the only one who loves her musicianship, Bob. Her appearances on HEE HAW with Grandpa are some of my favorite performances to emanate from Kornfield County. That lady could sure play the spoons! Looks like she can use a spoon in the kitchen, too. I just noticed she has a cookbook at The Ernest Tubb Record Shop. Give ‘em a call and order a book, Bob. You’ll be keeping up with the Jones’!

Thanks for asking,
The Q & A Lady
