The museum was also mentioned in the New York Times obituary of Rogers. “Mr. Rogers will often attend the museum and converse with visitors,” according to the piece. “He kept on wearing his white Stetson, gabardine shirts, and silver-and-leather belts. Although his knees ached and he might have been more at home in trainers, he still wore his pointy boots with high heels.”

Evans, who had turned 88 just a few months before her husband, passed away in 2001. Her work and her collaboration with Rogers were mentioned in her obituaries, as were her achievements. When it comes to Roy Rogers’ theme song, “Happy Trails to You,” she wrote the lyrics just 40 minutes before the show aired.
