SEP 14, 2009 AT 08:28 PM
Dirty Dancing star Patrick Swayze has passed away from pancreatic cancer. The information is confirmed by his rep Annett Wolf.
"Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months."
No other details were given.
Patrick will be remembered for so many movies and lines. "Nobody puts Baby in a corner" is probably my favorite. What are some of yours?
My thoughts are with his friends and family. Rest in Peace

I love you P-Swaze. I'll never forget the first time I saw you in Ghost when I was just a little young'n - that's when I fell in love. I am going to go watch that movie right now... RIP.
This is truly sad and heartbreaking even though it was somewhat expected. God Bless that man. I grew up with Dirty Dancing and even though Patrick has done tons of work he'll always be Johnny Castle to me. Condolences to his wife.

He gave it a good fight. He will be missed.
"He's gone with the wind..." and it's not even "Tuesday"! I will love him forever, in all he did!!!
Very sad, but knowing the statistics on pancreatic cancer, I was not hopeful. I just watched Dirty Dancing again over the weekend for the gazillionith time. It made me so sad to think that he would probably not be with "us" much longer. He always seemed like such a class act -- he AND his wife. My heart goes out to her amd the rest of his loved ones. Thank you, Mr. Swayze, for so many hours of enjoyment. Oh geez... I just thought about him on SNL with Chris Farley! That was hysterical. He was truly a great. :o)

I will always remember him from Point Break, love that movie!! RIP Patrick!!!
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!
