2009 may go down as the year when more notables in realm of celebrity passed. Just this summer, the world has seen the deaths of Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Walter Cronkite, Gale Storm, and so many, many more.
Now, we must add Patrick Swayze, an actor of immense popularity and versatility. Though most are most familiar with his roles in such huge moneymakers as Ghost and Dirty Dancing, I think the actor was most effective and showed his range in To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar.
He deserved an Oscar nod for that one. He was much better than Dustin Hoffman in a similar role.
