Poor Patrick Swayze has passed on




The guy had no real connection to Bruce, but he did record a hit song, and they both appeared on Saturday Night Live. So why am I mentioning him here? Because I liked him. He was a nice guy. Mainly because of this appearance with Chris Farley on SNL. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgEVUWIwNLw Awesome! Sad, these two men are reunited in death. So so young. I didn't write the following article. I swiped it from a BBC news article on the internet. Sums it all up nicely though. God bless Mr. Swayze! I'm sorry you had to go... ========================================= Dirty Dancing film star Patrick Swayze has died aged 57, his publicist says. Annett Wolf said that the US actor, who had been battling pancreatic cancer for nearly two years, died with family at his side on Monday. Swayze was diagnosed with advanced stage four pancreatic cancer in January last year. The actor had been starring in US TV show The Beast since being diagnosed with the disease. He had also planned to write a memoir with his wife. Patrick was a rare and beautiful combination of raw masculinity and amazing grace "Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months," said a statement by Annett Wolf quoted by the Associated Press. No other details were given. Rest of the article here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/8256033.stm
