Ang sikat na artista sa pelikulang “Ghost”, “Red Dawn” and yes, “Dirty Dancing”, Patrick Swayze, passed away today after his 20 months of battle with pancreatic cancer.

In an article from CNN:

Swayze died after a battle with pancreatic cancer. His doctor, Dr. George Fisher, revealed in early March 2008 that Swayze was suffering from the disease.

Swayze “passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months,” his publicist, Annett Wolf, said a statement released Monday evening, according to KTLA.

Most recently, Swayze starred in A&E Network’s “The Beast,” which debuted in January. He agreed to take the starring role of an undercover FBI agent before his diagnosis. The network agreed to shoot an entire season of the show after Swayze responded well to his cancer treatment.

It is a sad day indeed sa Hollywood and for the rest of the world. Damn, favorite ko pa man din ang film nyang “Red Dawn”. Anyhoot, ganun talaga ang life. We are all living in a borrowed life. There will come a time that we will meet our Creator in heaven.

God bless your soul, Patrick. Rest in peace. :(

Additional goodie:

Hindi ko maiembed dito ang Youtube nung sa Dirty Dancing kasi karamihan ng videos are disabled for embedding. Nagmadamot na naman ang mga mahadero sa Youtube. Eto ang old trailer ng Red Dawn. There is a Hollywood buzz that this fim will have a remake in 2010.
