  • Honoring Leroy Van Dyke
    Missouri House of Representatives FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CONTACT: Rep. Nathan Beard January 13, 2016 573-751-9774 Rep. Steve Cookson 573-751-1066 Missouri General Assembly Set to Honor Country Music Legend Leroy Van Dyke JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – The members of the Missouri legislature will take time next Tuesday afternoon to honor country music legend and Missouri native Leroy Van Dyke. The Missouri House of Representatives will hold a brief ceremony on the House floor as state Reps. Nathan Beard and Steve Cookson present Van Dyke with an official House Resolution honoring him for his 60 years in the music business. Van Dyke is also scheduled to be honored on the floor of the Missouri Senate that same day. Both Beard and Cookson said it was a privilege to be able to recognize a man who has had such a profound impact on the country music business, and such incredible longevity in the industry. “The impact Leroy Van Dyke has had on country music is unparalleled and something we all should take immense pride in as his fellow Missourians. I am blessed to have him as a constituent and so extremely proud of the amazing career he achieved with talent, hard work and perseverance. I am thrilled that my colleagues will join us in shining a much deserved spotlight on the Missourian who is respected throughout the country music industry as a consummate professional,” said Beard, R-Sedalia. “Our state has seen some truly outstanding men and women accomplish amazing things, but few can rival the phenomenal accomplishments of Leroy Van Dyke, who is Missouri’s ambassador for country music.

Peer becomes her manager, and at his urging, she adopts the stage name "Patsy," derived from her middle name of Patterson. They become lovers, even though he is married. Peer manages Patsy’s career, getting her gigs and working tirelessly to ensure that she is seen and heard by people who will put her in the spotlight. He not only guides and nurtures her career, he bankrolls it out of his own pocket, working several jobs and often going into debt to do so.

  • Leroy Van Dyke — Bio
    Leroy Van Dyke — Bio Leroy Van Dyke, of "Auctioneer" and "Walk On By" fame, star of the movie, "What Am I Bid?" is known around the world as an entertainer, recording artist, radio and television star, actor, auctioneer and veteran of the Nevada circuit. He has recorded over 500 songs, and probably holds the record for most repeat-performance bookings of any working, name country music entertainer. He has worked 40 to 70 fairs and livestock events per year for over five decades, in addition to a great variety of other engagements. He was born on a farm (not in a hospital) in rural Pettis County, Missouri, without the amenities of running water and electricity. Elementary schooling was in one-room country schools, then to high school at Sedalia, where he ranked third in a class of 180 graduates. Leroy is a graduate of the University of Missouri with a dual major: Animal Husbandry and Journalism, with a minor in Speech. He received a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture, did one semester of graduate work, and was a member of both the junior and senior University of Missouri intercollegiate livestock judging teams. After serving as a special agent, U. S. Army Counter-Intelligence Corps, in Korea, Leroy was catapulted into show business while working as a journalist, when his self-penned "Auctioneer" recording went a million-plus just weeks after its release. He then joined Red Foley's ABC-TV Network "Ozark Jubilee" in Springfield, Missouri, as a regular member, and continued in that position for three years until the show left the air.

  • LEROY VAN DYKE by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” Newspaper Decatur, IL
    LEROY VAN DYKE by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” newspaper Decatur, IL. © 2006 Country singer, Leroy Van Dyke, knew exactly what he wanted to pursue in life from the time he was a small boy growing up on a ranch in Missouri. "There are only four things I ever really had an obsession or passion about," Van Dyke says by tele- phone from his Smithton, Mo., farm. "One is singing, one is selling, one is writing and the other is raising livestock. Fortunately, I've had the opportunity to do all four." Van Dyke will perform on Saturday at Nashville North in Taylorville. Van Dyke, who charted nearly twenty country singles including "The Auctioneer," "Walk On By" and "If A Woman Answers (Hang Up The Phone)," is also a farmer, writer and auctioneer. "I'm a licensed and bonded auctioneer graduate of the Repperts School of Auctioneer- ing," Van Dyke says. "I also received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Missouri, where I majored in Animal Husbandry and Journalism, with a minor in Speech.” Van Dyke served in the army from 1952-1954 as a counter-intelligence special agent during the Korean War. ”Part of my job in Korea was to give security lectures to the troops up at the front lines, bunkers and trenches,” Van Dyke says. “One day, the assistant regimental commander asked if I would take my guitar with me when I gave those security lectures. So I did. I’d drive up in the hills in my jeep, take out my guitar, sing some songs, give my lecture and head back down the mountain.” While in Korea, Van Dyke wrote the song, “The Auctioneer,” which was inspired by his second cousin and premier auctioneer, Ray Sims.

  • 66 a Guitar Player, Leroy Had Spent Part of His Time in Korea
    A guitar player, Leroy had spent part of his time in Korea entertaining his buddies. It was during this time that he wrote “The Auctioneer,” about the life of his cousin, National Auctioneers Association Hall of Fame member Ray Sims. The song gave Van Dyke an opportunity to show off one of his growing list of professions, that of auctioneer (he himself was also later inducted into the Auctioneers Hall of Fame). The composition brought not only smiles from those who heard it, but also encouragement from a host of top brass who thought their man should try to market the tune. After his discharge, Van Dyke took their advice and performed “The Auctioneer” live on “Arthur Godfrey’s Talent Scouts” television show. Leroy won first place that night and was rewarded with a recording contract with Dot Records. Then he went to Chicago to perform the song on WGN Radio where he met Buddy Black, who was an announcer at the station. Black signed on to be Van Dyke’s manager, but during the legal negotiations, he sneaked in a document listing himself as co-writer of “The Auctioneer,” therefore giving him half the royalties for the song.
