R.I.P Siegfried Fischbacher

 Siegfried Fischbacher, better known as one half of the duo Siegfried &Roy. Siegfried lost his partner last year and this week lost his battle with cancer. He was an illusionist, magician, animal handler, and showman.


                                              A tribute from "People Magazine"


The couple were icons in Las Vegas. Masters of entertainment until an accidental attack by a tiger on Roy derailed their show. The world will miss the legend. However he is back with his partner may he rest in peace.

I had no idea Siegfried had this horrible cancer. He kept it quiet and I always found both of these men to be fine gentlemen who truly did love their animals and treated them so well. I hope the tigers and lions find a good home.

Never got to see this duo in person, but saw them on TV many times. A great magic act.
