R.I.P.: Jen Myers, Beloved St. Louis Radio Personality

Jen Myers (1974-2024)

Longtime radio host Jen Myers (real name Jennifer Marie Farmer) has died following an eight-year battle with breast cancer.

Myers, a New York native, had a 26-year career in radio. During that time, she was at stations in Buffalo, Des Monies and finally, St. Louis, where she hosted a morning show and was the music director at Y98 for 15 years.

“Jen loudly and proudly used her voice and her platform —and on many occasions an energy reserve she shouldn’t have been capable of—to help raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for causes she cared about, including Pedal the Cause, St. Louis Children’s Hospital, Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation and Pink Ribbon Good, just to name a few. When it came to helping others, Jen never said no,” read her obituary.

In lieu of flowers, her family is asking for donations to be made in her honor to Pedal the Cause, St. Louis Children’s Hospital, and Pink Ribbon Girls. They have also set up a GoFundMe account to help offset ongoing expenses for her family.
