Indeed. The Roy Rogers museum also closed because Rogers has been forgotten by younger generations.
I loved that museum too.

The restaurant chain keeps the name alive, for now:

Perhaps physical museums are like snail mail: on the way to the dustbin of history. For those who have to be near the physical objects that one could view in a museum, there was an auction - - - which will scatter the contents of the one museum into the private collections and museum collections that are not as topic-specific. So the heritage will not be gone, simply more diffused.
