Roy Rogers on TV





This link has a great story about a Roy Rogers movie and a local girl.

We watched Roy Rogers on TV every chance we got. I think his movie career was no longer as significant in the 1950s.

My wife Chris and I took a good friend to the Roy Rogers Museum (now closed) in Branson, Missouri. We heard Roy's son and grandson sing. When the grandson sang, it was eerily like a young Roy Rogers.

Chris has always been a Roy Rogers fan. She had a pet parakeet named Roy Rogers, who could almost say the Lord's Prayer, or at least start it.

To impress her at Augustana College, I sang "Happy Trails to You" when I left her at the Andreen dorm.
