Tribute to Juergen Aldag
(:: Home ::)


In loving memory of Juergen Hans Bruno Aldag, "The Celebrity Artist", who passed away on Jan. 19, 2006 in Las Vegas. He was born on Christmas Eve, December 24, 1955 in Hamburg, Germany. He has lived in Las Vegas and Hawaii for almost 15 years, painting artwork of his superstar friends, including his fellow countrymen, Siegfried & Roy's celebrity animals. Juergen is world renown for his unique signature fine art, that no other artist can duplicate, as well as for the celebrities that collect them. He had a heart of gold and a smile that spoke volumes. He was one-of-a-kind and as colorful as his paintings. He loved the Beatles and the Scorpions music, chess and soccer. He will be missed and forever remembered by all that had the pleasure of knowing him. He is survived by his wife of 12 years, Wendy Arvella; father, Bruno; sister, Angelica; cat/son, Ivory; and hundreds of paintings for all the world to share.

  We have known Juergen and Wendy for years and it is just a crying shame that Juergen will not be here to laugh with anymore. I will miss his smile. Wendy, we send you our love and sympathy, we'll call you soon and spend some time with you.

  My agent just called to tell me what happened. It's very sad. Juergen was the most creative painter that I ever knew. He was very sweet and kindhearted. I wish I could have held his hand one more time before he flew away.

God Bless You Juergen

  Juergen you were so full of life, always smiling and carefree, Life loved you being a part of it, and I loved you being a part of ours. You were a man with few words; you have always spoken through your artworks. Nothing could every stop you; your artworks lives on. God decided he needed you, so from this world you left. You took a piece of all of us, Our hearts are what you kept. Your seat is now empty, and it's hard not to see your face, But please always know this, No one will ever take your place. Nothing will ever be the same. We know you're in Heaven, Watching over us and looking after your love ones. And I know everyday for the rest of our lives, we'll be missing you. – Ed & Alison

  In the artist, Juergen Aldag, we found the person who could transform our magic into a statement of what Siefgried and I stand for, on canvas, to dipict our animals as endangered species, living together as family and friends.

Our magic together will spread around the world and we’ll make people appreciate what nature (God) gave us.

Juergen was a good friend. He was very sensitive and never missied sending us a birthday card every year. He saw our show over 50 times and still kept coming back for more.

We have many of his original pieces of artwork in our home and office, that we cherish. He was truly a great artist and friend, he will be missed.

4)Dear Wendy,
I’d like to, once again, voice my sincerest heartfelt condolences for Juergen’s passing. He was indeed a true friend and will always hold a very special place in my heart. For the short time that I had the privilege of helping him out with his bios, computer graphics and other projects, I certainly feel that Juergen’s life made a major difference in mine. God bless you through this time of deepest need.

Wendy- Juergen didn’t want his friends, and mostly you, to feel the pain he was in. He didn’t not want to die and leave you. In the few years I’ve know him, and the many times I have talked to him, you were his inspiration and you were his life. I am so sad for you.
My tears and thoughts and wishes. And any help or comfort we can provide.
With Love, Rick..Janie Alpern (Las Vegas)

1)Dear Wendy,
I am so sorry for your loss, I can't imagine how you must feel. Our greatest sympathy and compassion go out to you. Dusty and I will be at the service on the 30th. I know Juergen loved you, and would not want you to suffer, easier said than done, and I know he will look after you while he's in heaven.
Our deepest sympathy,
Terry&Dusty Ritter (Las Vegas)



2)Wendy,
I don’t know what to say – no words in the world can help you to understand why God has taken your beloved husband Juergen into his realm. So I better won’t try to say anything clever, but please accept my deepest sympathy.
Nobody have to tell you how nice and lovable Juergen was, because you spent 12 years together and I am sure nobody in the world knows him better than you. I met him only a couple times, when I was touring with the Scorps, between 1988 and 1991. The moment we met Juergen was so nice and friendly, he always treated me like an old friend. I also remember all the phonecalls we had last year, talking about Art Meets Music, but also about other things. He shared some very intimate experiences of his life with me, a guy he only met a couple times. I will keep him in my heart – rest in peace Juergen!
Wendy, I wish you very much to be strong now and that you will carry on his work and his arts – Juergen will watch us all from above and one day we will meet him again.
Keep the faith and keep in touch, Attila Kormanyos (Hamburg, Germany)

3)Hi Wendy, I feel with you and I cryed when I heard it. I wish I could be with you and tell you how sad I feel for the whole thing. You wrote the perfect words and I can feel there coming right from your Heart. You know my Philosophy I believe in Life after Death and I believe that Jürgen is with God now. He has no more Pain and that is the most important Thing.
All my Love, Herman Rarebell (Hamburg, Germany)

  I cannot live without my husband Juergen, so, he will live with me forever in my heart.

Juergen was an old soul, with so much love in his heart for everyone. He loved painting and is one of the greatest artists of all time.

I cannot express my love for him or just how special he was. I was in love with him from the moment we met 12 years ago, and I will never stop being in love with him.

I wrote this song for him:

A Dozen Years
by Wendy Arvella Aldag - dedicated to my husband:
the one I love - Juergen Aldag - January 2006

A Dozen Years, 12 years of joy
Just knowing you love me, and not like a toy
Our life together, cannot be compared
To anything else in life, that I’ve ever shared

One day I prayed for a true love
The next day I met you, you were sent from above
You are a treasure that God gave to me
One that I cherish, and I want the world to see

God answered my prayer, With a love that surpassed
My wildest dreams, A love that would last
The depth of our love is a secret we share
It’s real and intense, uncommonly rare

Chorus:

Forever my love, ten dozen times ten
You’ll be my love, from beginning to end
A Dozen Years, would not be enough
To show you the lengths and the depths of my love

Forever my love, ten dozen times ten
You’ll be my love, from beginning to end
Just not enough time, for all to be known
Of the love in my heart, for you, and you alone


Even in death, we’ll never part
Our love will live on, deep in our hearts
From forever to eternity, you promised to stay
And I know you are with me, even today

You came into my life, and captured my heart
It’s a dozen years later, and we’ll never part
12 years of loving you, and you loving me
A dream come true, it was just meant to be
