Roy Rogers and his beautiful wife Dale are up in heaven with Jesus. Probably in a heavenly ranch with Trigger and Bullet. Lol...they are truly missed!!
Thanks so much for posting! As a youth in the 60’s, our family would frequent the Roy Rogers museum at its original site in Apple Valley, Ca., prior to going up to our cabin in Big Bear Lake. I remember on one visit to the museum, me and my siblings and our four cousins were admiring the artifacts at the museum, then here comes my Dad walking with Roy Rogers. Til this very day I still remember all of us kids looking up to him in awe. Three minutes later, here comes my mom with Dale Evans. Magnificent memories that I will cherish forever. Rest In Peace in Gods loving arms Roy and Dale.
Those of us who grew up watching Roy, Dale, Pat, Trigger and Bullet were pretty darn lucky. I guess Roy was my first film hero. I don't think I ever missed a show.
I always loved The King of the Cowboys Roy Rogers, Dale Evans, and Pat Brady. I enjoyed going to his Museum, and looking over his personal property. I have great admiration for his honestly. God Bless the Rogers Family.
I was lucky to visit the museum in 1993, no Roy or Dale that day but Trigger, Bullet and Buttermilk were there to see. Great place, too bad they couldn't keep it there, money always wins out!!!
it is sad that with so few left to remember these times on TV or movies,the museum has been closed and some stuff is no longer together..roy,dale,trigger,buttermilk and bullet..may you all RIP
Once you split up a collection like this, it will never come together again. And the next generation won't even know why their parents or grand parents bought something from the museum and may even throw it away. Such is how fast fame and fortune vanish.
When they had a great sense of humour cared about community and helping people in desperate need with good moral values that they stuck to .Made a much better community to live in. Cheers
Yes, and meeting him, I was very happy to find that in real life he was just as you might hope he would be after watching him in the movies and on TV all those years.
I'm 22. I think I'm one of the few Millennials that have a clue who he is. Such a shame. Love all those old Western stars. We had just saved up enough money to go to the MO museum when it closed. We were heart broken. I also know about Rin Tin Tin and love it. But that one is really hard to find.
X'ers knew about him- and the chicken restaurant that had his name! But most X'ers don't care about Westerns or Roy Rogers. Millennial's are the ones who don't know who Roy Rogers was, mostly, there are going to be some, but yeah, those in their 40's and 50's in the 2000's and 2010's (X'ers) we know who he is, but aren't that big a fan, it was our parents who were the fans, that's why we know about him.
I grew up in the 60s watching reruns of Roy Rogers, I wish his films were being restored to clear quality. The story lines in his movies for the most part are quite good and underrated, lot of movies are in the mistaken identity theme, which is still used in todays shows and movies.........
I remember going to the Victorville museum as a kid for a school field trip in the 90s . When they close it down in the 2000s all I cold think was what a historical loss for the town. They used the space for a carlot, and I think some burger place. Such a shame
We came from a Canada vacation, boss said "real bad emergency surgery". Patient was Roy Rogers. Great guy and funny even during the emergency. Surgery went good. I told Dale Evans he was fine. Dale said, "Thank you son and God bless you". Then kissed me. Very sweet lady. I'll never forget them.
At the time of Triggers death, we were boarding his grandson on our SE Pa. farm. Still a stallion, he gave the girl owner a hard time...I rode him at times, before he was trained, interesting! Carlcatt22
Even in the 1980's, most of the museum visitors have grey hair. Sad. I was talking to a 45 year old yesterday, and he had no idea who Roy Rogers was. An age has passed.
Frank Dalla That’s What Roy himself said and he said to just put him on Trigger! He loved that horse so much, he couldn’t stand the thought of putting him in the groundTrigger was 33 years old when he died and had been with Roy for 29 years!
The best man in Hollywood I think. A real hero to a whole nation.
I still look up to Roy , what an example . Wish kids now had someone like him .
Nope kids today have Tekashi 6 9 and Cardi B
Roy Rogers is still the king of the cowboys today
Yep. He always will be.
Roy Rogers and his beautiful wife Dale are up in heaven with Jesus. Probably in a heavenly ranch with Trigger and Bullet. Lol...they are truly missed!!
WE WILL Meet Again....IN HEAVEN... See ya.... Upstairs...
If so, Roy and Dale must be really bored, since there aren't any bad guys to capture and bring to justice.

ABSOLUTELY A GREAT MAN AND FAMILY AND SO BLESSED....I LOVE THEM
Damn Roy Jr. ! Sold everything . Ruined it for others.
Roy himself told the family that once the museum was not making money, to sell it all.

Happy trails Roy and Dale we will meet you in heaven
My all time favorite !!! :)
YES we will met again...

I was station at George Air Force Base in 1961to 1963 and went to the museum and still think about about him.
Such wonderful people, and the times of innocence!

Roy was always my favorite cowboy.
Yes, and meeting him, I was very happy to find that in real life he was just as you might hope he would be after watching him in the movies and on TV all those years.
Roy was my second favorite. Gene was always first with me.
My grandmas brother peed himself when he met him
I am sad I never got to see the Museum
It was a really cool place. Particularly when Roy was on hand himself to show you around.
Wonderful memories - an understatement, to say the very least.
Generation after mine don't know who Roy was-that is why museum closed (I am 76-grew up watching him)
Feb. 2018---I'm 64 and don't forget the Rin Tin Tin tv series.
I'm 22. I think I'm one of the few Millennials that have a clue who he is. Such a shame. Love all those old Western stars. We had just saved up enough money to go to the MO museum when it closed. We were heart broken.
I also know about Rin Tin Tin and love it. But that one is really hard to find.
@@HopeNazir How about Sky King ?
I am 72 and I did too. He is my film Hero.
X'ers knew about him- and the chicken restaurant that had his name! But most X'ers don't care about Westerns or Roy Rogers.

Thank you for sharing this precious memory.

I had the privilege of visiting the museum once and I loved it. I wish it was it was still in Victorville.
What a man. I loved everything that he did. Dale was a great role model. Together they did some amazing work!!!!!!!
I love them!

I remember meeting Roy Rogers in his museum in 89...but as a 12yr old Aussie, I had no idea who he was! :)

One of my Favorites! Cool video. Thanks.
I was fortunate enough to have seen the museum before it closed while I was stationed nearby George Air Force base (1980)
At the time of Triggers death, we were boarding his grandson on our SE Pa. farm.
Still a stallion, he gave the girl owner a hard time...I rode him at times, before he
was trained, interesting!

I went to see the Roy Rodgers museum in Victorville in 1990...🤠
America and the Cowboy Way, I'd go back there !
It's a shame they had to close the museums and auction everything off. :( but I guess time marches on and people's interests change.
Yes, you're right. It was really great to meet and talk with him in person after growing up watching him on television!
Even in the 1980's, most of the museum visitors have grey hair. Sad. I was talking to a 45 year old yesterday, and he had no idea who Roy Rogers was. An age has passed.
I didn't get to go to his Funeral but I would like to say Happy Trails.
His museum was shut down just a short time ago. Lack of interest I assume. Too bad. Just another nail in the coffin of my childhood!
Cool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I passed his museum many times on the way to L.A. but kept saying next time, and then it closed. Just a reminder to not put things off.
A good man...out of fashion nowdays
Now closed but much of it I think ironically went to Autry
They don’t make em like they used to
Is this museum still open?
No.closed and memorabilia auctioned off.
They should of stuffed Roy when he died.

Unfortunately, no
