Rolland Beale

Rolle was a friend of my father´s Harold Apel. Both racers....hanging out at Donnie Harrels. Fun times!

My condolences to the Beale family. I didn't know Mr Beale personally nor did I see any of his races. I went to school his Gary. I never heard any but praise about his father.

What great memories watching him race at Raceway Park before they went horses.

To the Beale family, our deepest sympathies to you for the loss of wonderful man. Always loved watching him race and listening to our dad,Bob Nelson, talk about the "good old days" of racing with Rollie and Bennie Rapp. God Bless you all. The Bob Nelson family

Needless to say the racing community lost a great competitor and supporter of the sport. I lost my hero and great friend. Will always cherish the times together with him. Thank you AnnaMae and family for sharing him with me. I'm going to miss you friend.

Many people spend a lifetime searching for that special friendship. I knew Rollie at an early age when he drove Dave Blairs #5 ford sedan. By the time he hopped into the seat of P6 he was my hero. What a thrill watching him at Raceway Park. Never thought we'd end up working together at the DTSL R.R.Of course getting the chance to help out a little bit on the Rodeo Bar car was ever so special to me. Thanks Donny and Rick. I had the opportunity to spend many occasions with Rollie , ones that I...

What a great racer Rollie was and a true gentleman. His gentile demeanor was just what the USAC sprint division neeeedd at the time he was its supervisor. He was a fair man in a most difficult position and I really enjoyed having him saw the wheel for us when he drove. R.I.P. Rollie and win the feature when you get to the "golden speedway"

You have been my hero from the time you were in P6 and for all time. You always had time for my family and me. God speed to you and your family. Stew Baldwin. Grand Rapids Ohio

Anna Mea and family, So very sorry for your loss. Carolyn and Marilyn Woody
