Roy Rogers personified America's quintessential good-guy cowboy hero. From the late 1930s to the late 1950s Roy's presence and magical singing voice touched us from movie screens, television screens, radio and records, and in countless personal appearances all over the country. In 1943 he was declared "King Of The Cowboys," a grand title that fit him effortlessly. Decked out in some of the wildest, most flamboyant cowboy garb ever seen and mounted on his golden palomino stallion Trigger, he was known for more than his beautiful singing voice and acting career: Roy Rogers, the man, was known for his deep compassion. His energy for showing kindness seemed to be endless as he put his compassion into action with a never-ending stream of visits to children's hospitals, shelters, and meetings with individual kids that sorely needed to meet their hero. Roy Rogers galloped into our hearts as a movie cowboy but stayed there for being a real-life hero, a man we knew we could count on to do what was right. The ring below is a Branding Iron ring.
