Gene Autry ---- Introduction
by Stan Paregien
Welcome to the Gene Autry section of The Cowboy Directory. As with many of you, I was weaned on Gene Autry movies. He was one of my heroes.
I saw Gene Autry only once, and briefly at that. My son and I were at the annual "89's Day Celebration" in Guthrie, Oklahoma when Gene was the Grand Marshal. That was sometime in the mid-1970's.
However, when he died in 1998 it was as though I had lost a close member of my family. I still enjoy listening to his recordings and watching him catch the bad guys on the silver screen.
I hope you enjoy these pages and photos.
