Roy Rogers: The Cowboy King and His Unforgettable Journey
Roy Rogers, renowned as the “Cowboy King,” left an enduring imprint on entertainment, boasting nearly 200 appearances in movies and TV. Though he passed in 1998 at 86, his legacy remains vibrant.

Discover how Rogers, born Leonard Slye on November 5, 1911, in Cincinnati, Ohio, navigated a path that led him to his first wife, sparked by his love for lemon cream pie.

Grounded in Duck Run, Ohio, Rogers’ roots were steeped in a family farm. His early connection with animals was evident, seen when he won a 4H contest with his pet pig at a county fair. A move to California opened new horizons, but challenges arose during the Great Depression.

Music was his solace, propelling him into The Rocky Mountaineers and The Pioneer Trio. Fate took a turn when he met Lucille Ascolese, future wife, through a shared pie.

Transitioning into film and records, Rogers’ collaboration with Dale Evans, his second wife, became iconic. Their journey was marked by challenges and personal loss, yet they weathered them together.

Roy Rogers’ legacy lives on, inspiring countless admirers through his journey from humble beginnings to becoming an adored entertainer.
