RIP Patrick Swayze

[Grov]

Another great guy gone.  He lived a good 57 years first though.

Just saw a great quote," Somewhere in Heaven, an angel is getting dirty danced."

R.I.P. Patrick Swayze

[Noble Dreg]

A horrible disease highlighted by having to watch a strong man fade away...God rest his soul and may all those who fight such a powerful illness find strength and compassion from their friends and family.

[Rani Zemirah]

Sorely missed... from the talent to the temperament, what a man!!!

[Anna Iram]

Aw. I was so sad to hear Patrick passed away today. He'll be missed.

[Sir William Marcus]

RIP Pat!

GO WOLVERINES!

[Taffy Saltwater]

I owe him such a great deal.  When I was undergoing my own cancer treatment, I watched To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything,Julie Newmar on a regular - almost daily - basis.  If those three men could be beautiful women, then so could bald, pale, sick me.  Not to mention the silly escapism got me away from my reality for a couple of hours and I'd listen to the soundtrack during treatments.  

I lift the proverbial cup and say To Patrick Swayze, Thanks for Everything, Flora A.

Ghost and Dirty Dancing set the world on fire... Red Dawn fired people up so much there were riots in the theatres... Roadhouse taught us all to "be nice" and we won't even talk about THE cultural film of its time... The Outsiders...

RIP Patrick
you'll be missed

[Grov]

It's been too long since I saw Red Dawn.  They should re-release it.

[Sir James of Milford]

such a shame to lose a good person to such a horrible disease

[Rapier Half-Wit]

WOLVERINES!!

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

They are supposedly doing a re-make of Red Dawn...

[Rani Zemirah]

Hmmm... remake.  I'd watch it, but I'm not sure I could let go of my impression of the original long enough to appreciate a newer version.  It would have to be absolutely exceptional...

if there can be one thing I am grateful for in this sadness, it's that we didnt have to watch him completely waste away. He was such a vital man, and seeing the images of him as he got sicker just broke my heart. He was my FIRST heart throb (well, after Prince Eric in Little Mermaid!) and I know there are SEVERAL generations of women who are mourning with us.

Heaven is dancing today.

[Charlotte Rowan]

57 years old... what a tragedy. It's so sad to see another good person lost to this terrible disease. May he rest in peace.
