RIP Patrick Swayze
2009 marks the year of lost of some of the finest celebrities in the entertainment industry. Add Hollywood actor Patrick Swayze to the list.
"Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months," said publicist Annett Wolf in a statement released on Monday.
The 57 year-old actor died of pancreatic cancer on Monday, September 14. Earlier this year, Patrick told in his interview with ABC's Barbara Walters:
"I'd say five years is pretty wishful thinking. Two years seems likely if you're going to believe statistics. I want to last until they find a cure, which means I'd better get a fire under it."
A gifted actor and performer, Patrick Swayze was best-known for his lead roles in Dirty Dancing and Ghost. He was People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive in 1991.
