Early this morning it was everywhere that Roy Horn of the famous duo Seigfried and Roy had passed.
Roy was 75 years old when he passed due to complications from the Corona Virus.
The duo stopped preforming when in October of 2003, Roy was attacked by their white tiger, Mantecore, severing his spine.
Roy claimed that the tiger was reacting to the signs of a stroke and called him, his lifesaver. He was never mad at the tiger like many would be.
He spent his life after retirement visiting his animals and just traveling.
Seigfried will never preform without his partner and best friend. He says that Roy has been a fighter his whole life and he fought until the end.
We will mourn his passing for a long time.
On a side note, I hope all their animals are okay. You know animals can feel that type of sadness.
