Sarah, I'm really glad to hear that you got to experience Vegas before corporations really took over. My grandparents retired there in the early 1980s, and we used to visit up until the 1990s. Vegas was really special back then. It was clean and everyone was treated like they were special. Siegfried and Roy were the best. Circus Circus had the best breakfast in town and you could eat prime rib every night! Vegas was a special place back then.

She was buried in the north east part of the property. In a shady grove of trees, with a park bench and a large granite marker stone. No one could miss it.

That's our Hussy. Hoisting herself up a fence to stream. Can you imagine buying the townhouse over Gildah's grave with the ghost of Gildah stomping down you hall trumpeting on random nights?
-
Talk about the elephant in the room! Gilda definitely should have an appropriate resting place. Truly a big Vegas showgirl. Thanks Sarah. ❤😄
-
For being such a hard ass tough guy-WH is actually the sweetest softy who ever came out of Vegas. Brings a tear to my eye every time she opines on some poor lost soul!

Its sad that Siegfried and Roy are not remembered better.... They were as important to Vegas as were The Rat Pack, Liberace, David Cassidy, Wayne Newton and list goes on... The problem lies with the Las Vegas City Council, the Visitor Bureau, and the casino's of that city... It shows that fame is short lived (at least in that city)... Rest in Peace Siegfried, Roy and may Gildah also rest in peace undisturbed...

Sarah, my UNCLE took care of Gilda! He was a BIG actor in the 70's and 80's (IMBD Steve Sandor) and took me to see Gilda a few times before he passed about 5 yrs ago. She was SPOILED. Had a waterfall in her enclosure, constant attention...and her own giant TV! There was a peacock that Gilda used to get annoyed by and she'd (with her trunk) pick up the bird and toss it over her fence! I have Gilda's photo with her blue ball she loved...in my house. Kept it after my uncle passed. She was very loved. (So you know!) ....a big fan of yours, Laura (In Vet Med out here in Henderson.)

Interesting Siegfried and Roy facts! I remember them just like it was yesterday. That 20 years sure went fast! Thanks Huss for another enlightening episode ❤😊

brought a tear to my eye......RIP Gilda

I have a tear in my eye 😢you are so talented at story telling!
-
Another amazing video. They should be kept in a Las Vegas public library for future generations
-
That was so touching, dear sweet animals. Now they are in a better place, amen.
-
Thank you, WH💖! Our Beagle, Shiloh, is there💔since July of 2021. Her ashes are fertilizing the rose garden. Thanks for showing us that she is in good company. RIP Shiloh 🐶❤🐾🦴

I met Siegfried at the Secret Garden about 8-9 years ago, and he was the sweetest, nicest man. He spent about 20 minutes talking with us and did a magic trick for my son. He was exactly as you'd expect Siegfried to be, he was wearing a blue velvet jacket and an ascot scarf. He was so lovely!
-
Thanx Sarah for another epic dive into little known history of Vegas performers. Sad what animals had to endure after their owners deaths...RIP to all those animals...
-
Yo, I literally started to tear up after 17:31. This is such a beautiful idea, and somebody needs to start a petition to make this happen. I will sign it immediately.

Thank YOU for your off center humor.

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot ! 😎

That was a really touching tribute, Sarah. Well done & thank you for sharing.
