Ben Jones, Cooter Actor, Dies at 84 | Washington DC News
Ben Jones, beloved actor who brought Cooter Davenport to life on “The Dukes of Hazzard” and later served two terms in the U.S. House of Representatives, has passed away at 84 from a heart attack at home — reportedly while relaxing in his favorite chair, just moments before watching the Braves take on the Yankees. His wife, Alma Viator, confirmed he died peacefully, surrounded by love. Though details of any memorial services remain unannounced, his legacy as both a screen icon and public servant endures.
