We all knew he was sick and yet…I’m speechless. So sad. Part of my youth is gone (again).
Goodbye Patrick.

How very sad. I remember being 6 or 7 watching Dirty Dancing for the first time (my mom didn’t care) and I was just mesmorized him. It later turned into full on inftuation. He was such a terriffic actor (and easy to look at). My deepest sympathies go to his wife and family, but I am feeling the loss as well right now.
PS. Maey Anne – you do know that Patrick sang the song “She’s like the wind”, right? Many people don’t know that.

I am more sad about him passing then MJ. I know he was sick but I thought I was going to marry him growing up. He was my first true crush. So sad!

This is a terrible loss, for his wife-first, then for his extended family and friends, then for Hollywood. He was a great actor and now cancer took his life. Well, life is short and the unexpected does happen!

….God is always on time.
My heart and prayers reach out for his family as I’m sure a horrific ordeal coming to rest has placed a heavy burden upon them. He will be missed.
