A little over a month ago, we learned of the tragic news that Hank Williams Jr.’s wife of 30 years, Mary Jane, had passed away at 58 years old in Jupiter, Florida.
It’s believed that she died due to a blood clot from complications with a medical procedure.
With that being said, Hank Jr. posted a heartfelt message to his Instagram account, in memory of his longtime wife:
“I met Ms. Mary Jane Thomas on July 4th, 1984 in Daytona Beach, FL. Who knew that the Beach Beauty would turn out to be a world-class hunter and adventurer?
We traveled all over the world on hunts and safaris, but our favorite was hunting right here in Tennessee!”
Hank and Mary Jane married in 1990 and had two children together, Katherine and Samuel. Katherine tragically passed away in a car accident in 2020.
Hank Williams Jr.’s Son Sam Honors Memory Of Late Mother
Hank Jr.’s son, Sam, released a statement to People, about the tragic passing of his mother.
It read:
“My dear Mama Mary Jane was a beautiful soul who forever affected everyone who knew her. She had a smile and presence that lit up every room and she never met a stranger she didn’t befriend.
Her spirit was gentle and giving. She could take down a ten-point buck and fix dinner for her grandchildren at the same time! Now she gets to radiate from above with my sister Katherine Diana right by her side.
She grew up competing in baton and cheerleading and was one of Hawaiian Tropic’s top models. My father fell in love with the Daytona Beach beauty the minute he set eyes on her in the early ’80s. They went on to live the most powerful love story of travel and hunting and raising a family.
She is survived by my father, her two parents Ramona and Bill, her brother Andy, her sister Angela, myself and her three grandchildren: Beau Weston, Tennyson Hiram and Audrey Jane. Rest in peace Mama, I will always be the son of Mary Jane.”
RIP Mary Jane
