SEE PHOTO----- COMPLETE ORIGINAL NEWSPAPER, the Victorville Daily Press (CA) dated July 7, 1998.
This is the BEST Roy Rogers Dead newspaper, being published in his home town of VICTORVILLE, California.
Roy Rogers, born Leonard Franklin Slye (November 5, 1911 –
July 6, 1998), was an American singer and cowboy actor, as well as the namesake
of the Roy Rogers Restaurants 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."
Rogers died of congestive heart failure on July 6, 1998.
Rogers was residing in Victorville, Apple Valley, California at the time of his
death. He was buried at Sunset Hills cemetery in Apple Valley.
