| Six Hundred FortyEighth in the Famous People (FP) Series - Roy Rogers |
 |
Roy Rogers, born Leonard Franklin Slye (November 5, 1911 – July 8, 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. Roy's nickname was "King of the Cowboys". Dale's nickname was "Queen of the West."
The show's theme song, “Happy Trails”, was written by Dale Evans and sung over the end credits by Rogers and Evans.
Roy and Dale married on New Year's Eve in 1947 at the Flying L Ranch in Davis, Oklahoma, where a few months earlier they had filmed Home in Oklahoma. Roy and Dale remained married until Roy's death in 1998.
