Roy Wieghorst

Roy was a Generous and caring friend! He had a small sculpture of Mine! I first met Roy on a Horse ride in Tasmania. A year later I was invited by Mt Oyster club as their guest, to join them on a ride near Nogales, Roy new The Mayor of The Mexico side of Nogales, invited us to dinner. The border crossing was arranged. For me A Tasmanian! it was a great experience in Arizona! Roy was there with his big camping van. He showed me around with Our good friend Jack Goodman!

Roy was a great guy who was the ultimate hunter & expert on his father,Olaf Wieghorst's Western paintings. He 'Righted' a decision on a fine Olaf Wieghorst painting we owned that was shot down by an art person who is considered by some, to be one of the top Western art 'Experts' in the U.S. When I showed the painting to Roy he said,"Of course that my dads work done in the prime of his life in 1945!"~ We first met Roy and his dad on the set of John Wayne's movie, El Dorado. We miss him and...

I went to high school with Roy's 2 daughters and only met him twice and he was a nice person to chat with. After that, I never saw him again. Dana and Lisa, I'm sorry for your loss. He will always be alive in your hearts. I send my condolences to everyone in your family during this difficult time.

Roy was a great horseman and a good friend, he will be missed
