Patrick Swayze
 

I always felt a connection with Patrick Swayze, perhaps part of it was that he was from Houston (very close to where I grew up). He died thsi week and I feel very sad. I won’t even begin to try to express all the thoughts and feelings I’m having. But I will say… May we enjoy each day for as special as it really is. May we live with no regrets. May we love, feel and give with all of our hearts. And may we be true to who we are and why we are here. Patrick, we will miss you, thank you for all that you gave to us, we will never forget you. Rest in peace.

I invite you to share your thoughts in honor of Patrick.

Niko

    Patrick, thanks for teaching the world how to move the hips with Dirty Dancing. We will never forget that movie. You made us dream and dance. To every one who fights any kind of cancer these days, including several members of my family, just don’t give up.

    Patrick était un homme extraordinaire que j’aimais très fort…
    ses films m’ont marqué comme ghost ou dirty dancing c’était toute ma jeunesse…
    je l’ai suivi tout au long de sa carrière et fut très triste d’apprendre qu’il se battait contre son cancer … qu’il reste en paix et que dieu l’accueille dans sa demeure…il le mérite tant…
    love patrick for ever xxx

  14. When I heared the news I felt really sad!
    Patrick was truly a gentleman and a gentle man. Amazing actor,dancer,singer but most of all a great man!
    Honest,kind,supportive,hard worker.
    We will miss him forever!
    Lisa his wife, his best friend and companion will be always in our thoughts and prays!

    Here is a poem of Henry Van Dyke “Gone From My Sight”
    I feel the need to post it here

    I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side,
    spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts
    for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength.
    I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck
    of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.

    Then, someone at my side says, “There, she is gone”

    Gone where?

    Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast,
    hull and spar as she was when she left my side.
    And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.

    Her diminished size is in me — not in her.
    And, just at the moment when someone says, “There, she is gone,”
    there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices
    ready to take up the glad shout, “Here she comes!”

  34. Niko,
    Dancing ist’s not one of my strongest arts, but, for me, Dirty Dance left a message of love, the same we use to try to give with your music and my writings.
    Patrick, I’ll always miss you! God will have it in account and let you stay by his side.

  35. He who lightning the sky for all us lonely people,he who let his love spred into all of our home,he who shared his darkest moment whit us all..he..the man Patric is allways in our hearts…rest in peace! Love Mia

  36. Patrick Swayze was given two years to live after being diagnosed with cancer and even when sick rodo a movie, your niko, if you’re diagnosed with a disease and you say you have two years of life, would also sing in your last moments of life? what would you do?

  37. I admire the courage it took Patrick, knowing that he had little time to live but he did what he liked to shoot his latest film, doctors in the rest of the shame that pelicula.Una beat cancer and not the value of Patrick, but of all However it seems to me that was very brave fight against the beast. Let there be where this rest in peace.

    We are all only here for a mere flicker of time. Sometimes that flicker of time shines like a light that sends beautiful, colorful sparks that touch others lives. Patrick Swayze was one of those special people who set off sparks in so many other people. That is why we are sad, sweet Niko. We remember the life, the strength, the love that Patrick had to share with us, and we feel, for a moment, that it is somehow lost. But, on the contrary, these are the very things that last forever, that continue to burn strongly inside each of us. We are stronger, wiser, brighter human beings ourselves for having known such a person in our own lives. Celebrate this man and all that he did in his life – in such a short flicker of time. We were all so fortunate to have been here at the same time. Love to all.

  41. Patrick gave us his all when he made his movies, I will truly miss this wonderful man. May he RIP with no pain. He will long live in our hearts.

    Patric was truly a talented man. We were lucky to have him as long as we did. He is in a better place and is no longer suffering. He gave it a brave fight. RIP Patric and my thoughts and prayers go to Lisa and the rest of his family.

  43. Patrick saw some of your film actor of my youth that God receives in his arms and one day we will find peace in heaven your soul Mila Portugal

    The legend of a man like him shall last forever.
    He walked quitely through life yet leaving his mark
    forever!
    A true spirit to himself and those that he loved.
    Did his best no matter how much he had to suffer.
    His example is one that shall be treasured forever.
    He was like the wind in the song he sang in Dirty
    Dancing.
    With deepest sorrow we must all say farewell to one
    that made a mark here on this earthly plain.
    Thank you for the joy of your gift to all of man-
    kind!

    Hi Niko! First of all I want to thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings about this sad event. We all know he was a special, talented and amazing man, who is now finally resting and not suffering anymore.
    I feel very sad about his death as well, I’ve been a life long fan, always loved him in all his movies and shows. Dirty Dancing came out the year I was born 1987, and since I was about 1 year old when I saw the movie for the 1st time, I’ve been a follower ever since, and as any little girl when she has a crush, all I did was talk about him lol..I have nice memories and I hope he is well and happy where he is now, although we will all miss him, as a person and as an artist, he’s still with us, will never be forgotten.
    Thanks for allowing me to share my thoughts as well
    RIP Patrick
    love always
    Jess

    Bueno… otra vez desde España. Me parece perfecto que quieras expresar tu dolor por la muerte de este hombre. Creo que ante todo a debido ser una buena persona.
    Una vez mas el puto cancer ha hecho funcionar su rasero y podemos comprobar que afecta tanto a ricos como a pobres, a seres populares como anónimos, a jóvenes y a ancianos.
    Patrick andará bailando un rock and roll en el cielo.
    Solo expresar que haya donde se encuentre consiga estar en paz.
    Un abrazo.
