 Tom Hicks, Texas businessman and former owner of Stars, Rangers, and Liverpool, dies at 79

 Tom Hicks, the Texas businessman and philanthropist known for owning major sports franchises in Dallas and an English Premier League soccer team, passed away Saturday at the age of 79. Hicks died peacefully in Dallas, surrounded by his family, a spokesperson confirmed.

Hicks’s sports legacy included ownership of the NHL’s Dallas Stars from 1995 to 2011, highlighted by a Stanley Cup victory in 1999, and the Texas Rangers baseball team from 1998 to 2010, leading them to three American League West Division titles and a World Series appearance. In 2007, he expanded his portfolio internationally by acquiring a 50% stake in Liverpool FC. Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones remembered Hicks as more than a fellow team owner, emphasizing their shared respect, trust, and friendship over the years.

Beyond sports, Hicks was a trailblazer in private equity, co-founding Hicks & Haas in 1984 and Hicks, Muse, Tate & Furst in 1989, shaping investment strategies and business practices. Fellow businessman Ross Perot Jr. called Hicks “an innovative businessman and a pioneer in private equity” who bridged his passion for business with sports ownership. Hicks also served as a paratrooper in the Army Reserves, chaired the American Battle Monuments Commission, and was a member of the University of Texas Board of Regents from 1994 to 1999.

Hicks is survived by his wife of 35 years, Cinda Cree Hicks, and six children: Thomas Ollis Hicks Jr., Mack Hardin Hicks, John Alexander Hicks, Robert Bradley Hicks, William Cree Hicks, and Catherine Forgrave Hicks. His children issued a statement honoring their father: “Of everything he accomplished in his remarkable life, Tom Hicks’s most cherished title was, ‘Dad.’ No matter the trials and tribulations he faced in life, he was constant in his generosity and love for his family. He remains a guiding force for our family, and we are deeply honored to continue expanding his legacy. Although we are devastated by this loss, we are profoundly grateful to have been his children.”
