ESMONT, Va., Oct. 31, 2012 /Christian Newswire/ -- Dale Evans, The Queen of the West, would have been 100 years old today, October 31, 2012. The #1 box office stars during the 1940's and 1950's, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans changed the lives of millions of children around the world.
The Roy Rogers' 100th Birthday Celebration 2-DVD Commemorative Collection has just been released featuring the new documentary Dale Evans: Beyond the Happy Trails. Watch Now for free: vimeo.com/royanddale/daleevans.
This 2012 Gift of the Year for seniors celebrates the life of Roy and Dale and their lasting impact on American culture.
Almost everyone over 55 listened to the Roy Rogers' Show on radio, watched Roy Rogers and Dale Evans in the theatre, or gathered around the television on Saturday mornings for the Roy Rogers Show with Dale Evans, Pat Brady, Trigger, Bullett, and Nellybelle.
Dale Evans: Beyond the Happy Trails follows the trials and triumphs of Roy and Dale as they celebrated life, but also struggled with the death of multiple children. Dale's book Angel Unaware, written from the perspective of Roy and Dale's Down Syndrome baby Robin, forever changed the public perception of children with Down Syndrome and other cognitive disabilities. Profits from Angel Unaware funded the first Executive Director for the ARC and allowed that grass-roots parent's organization to have their first national headquarters. Dale went on to write 27 other inspirational books and more than 300 songs which have blessed millions around the world.
