Foo - Breaking news: Patrick Swayze dead

It was just announced on the news: Patrick Swayze dead of pancreatic cancer at age 57.

How very sad :(

Bummer

Red Dawn is one of the best movies ever.

Damn.
I liked the Bodasafa.

Rip

I have to welcome the end of what must have been the worst kind of suffering imaginable and I hope the end was peaceful.

Cancer sucks. Goodbye, Patrick.

Damn.:(
Chippendales just lost another dancer.

This sucks!

Very, very sad. I, like Sixty Fiver hope the end was peaceful for him.

Just heard the cancer got the better of him. He had roots here in ATX - some of my neighbors took dance classes from his mom. RIP.

I'll miss him. Hard not to enjoy watching Patrick on the screen. My favorite Swayze movies: Point Break and City of Joy.

My fave was Donnie Darko.

bummer:(
I really liked him

+1 he is at peace now...that must be a particularly nasty form of cancer to deal with.

Ask Steve Jobs. He has barely survived the variety he had... of course, it certainly makes it easier to purchase a new liver when you are a multi-gazillionaire - which Patrick was not.

I'm going to take the organ bank at their word when they say Jobs was the most ill person on the list when a matching liver became available.

Just heard this on the drive home. I will miss Mr. Swayze. The last of the Chunkindale Dancers has shuffled off this mortal choir.

Sorry to hear this. My uncle died of pancreatic cancer, my aunt told me just enough about the end to know it's truly excruciating.

Nobody puts Swayze in the coroner.

Sorry, I had to. He gave me some great memories and I hope the end was as pleasant as possible for him.

That just sucks

That sucks. Maybe we'll see him in Ghost part II?

Swayze's brand of pancreatic cancer was not treatable. Jobs' was.

Jobs was essentially very, very lucky.

LOS ANGELES — Patrick Swayze personified a particular kind of masculine grace both on and off screen, from his roles in films like "Dirty Dancing" and "Ghost" to the way he carried himself in his long fight with pancreatic cancer. Swayze died from the illness on Monday in Los Angeles, his publicist said. He was 57.

Patrick Swayze (second from right) served as a father figure as Darrel in 1983's 'The Outsiders'

He was one of the good ones. I'll miss him.

Sad. I enjoyed his work.

He was married to the same woman for 34 years, I think. Very uncommon in Hollywood.

Rock on, Dalton!

Bodhi, we'll miss you, brah. As Bodhi said: "Time to dance with the universe."

You too, Dalton.



Funny site comparing Bodhi and Dalton, two of his always-watch-whenever-they're-on-TV roles:

I hope I am never so lucky. I would rather not get pancreatic cancer in first place.

I should watch Red Dawn tonight... my favorite Swayze movie by a long shot...

:roflmao2:

I pretty much liked the stuff he did prior to the 90's. After that I think he got sappy and boring for the most part.

Probably my favorite thing he did was that Chippendales thing with Chris Farley.
