Former longtime KZMU manager Jeff Flanders passes

KZMU mourns the passing of Jeff Flanders, who managed the station for 16 of its 25 years and lived next door. Among his accomplishments, Jeff created and produced “Word of the Day,” KZMU’s collaboration with Moab 5th and 6th graders; and oversaw KZMU’s conversion from wind to solar power. We’re grateful that Jeff and his wife Colleen attended KZMU’s Birthday Party bash at the MARC in April, where Jeff greeted KZMU friends and fans and we celebrated his long history with the station. Jeff passed away Friday, June 16 at Moab Regional Hospital.
