Roy Rogers, born Leonard Franklin Slye (November 5, 1911 – July 6, 1998), was an American singer and cowboy actor, one of the most heavily marketed and merchandised stars of his era, as well as being the namesake of the Roy Rogers Restaurants franchised chain. He and his wife Dale Evans, his golden palomino, Trigger, and his German Shepherd dog, Bullet, were featured in more than 100 movies and The Roy Rogers Show. The show ran on radio for nine years before moving to television from 1951 through 1957. His productions usually featured a sidekick, often either Pat Brady (who drove a Jeep called "Nellybelle"), Andy Devine, or the crotchety George "Gabby" Hayes. Rogers's nickname was "King of the Cowboys". Evans's nickname was "Queen of the West."

Owners of the Horses (Ken and Helen Smith) Told him he wasn't required any longer. Finished up 2 weeks ago.
Was reported in The Advertiser that the 2 parties didn't see eye to eye on a few matters. (no idea what they were). So the Smiths decided to finish having Roy as their Private Trainer at their Narong property and replaced him with John Cornell who spend many years working at Lindsay Park at Angaston. (John had previously declined the job. Roy and His wife Wendy had done a very good job (IMO) considering they only have Smiths homebred stock to work with. |
