Forever in our hearts

Of all the celebrity deaths, I think this one I feel the most. I won't say I'm sad, Patrick Stewart lived an awesome life, and I'm glad to hear he didn't have to battle Alzheimers or Lewy body Dementia for a long time.
RIP to an amazing actor who played amazing roles, and who lived a full life that we should all strive for.

My favorite Unknown British Shakespearean Actor.
May his tombstone be forever illuminated by exactly four lights.

Rest in peace

Fuuuuck I'm not ready for this
I'm not usually one to get emotional about celebrities but this one sucks. RIP legend.
Many of my favourite moments in all of media are of this, out of place, British/French/Space man, speaking softly and at length about morality and the human experience. He still continues to give me hope that Humanity can eventually surpass the greed, hate and fear that hold us all down. Hopefully, we can see a glimpse of it in our lifetime.
Let's see what's out there.
My favorite thing he's done was dressing down James Corden in front of a live mic. Captain, my captain, forever.

I'm so glad we got one last go around with Picard in Season 3 while he was still here. I was just watching Unification: Part I last night and enjoying this scene:
B'iJik: How would it benefit the Klingon Empire? I'm sure Gowron will ask.
Picard: The only benefit to the Klingon Empire would be our gratitude.
B'iJik: That is what you want me to tell him?
Picard: Yes. And please add that, if he is unable to provide us with a ship, then I am sure there are others in the Klingon Empire who would be willing to help me. And then... they would have our gratitude.
B'iJik: [long pause] I see.
Picard: Also, please tell Gowron that I am immensely gratified that he is prospering so well. A tribute to his skilled leadership.
The scene were he was speaking to Sarek as he wasted away on his deathbed hits differently now, too.

It's always a hard thing to deal with the death of someone you care for. It's a weird thing to feel so much sorrow for someone you never knew.
But here I am crying because I really loved him and he will never know how much his art has meant to me.
Sad days
Sorry to see him go, but I'm happy we got to see him, and the others, once again in Picard.
Noooooo. RIP.
GOD DAMN IT. I BLAME Q.

Nooooooooooooooo!
Interesting post description

Fred Rogers taught us to love ourselves and be good to each other.
Robin Williams taught us to laugh and have wit.
Sir Patrick Stewart taught us to have wonder and to have hope for and help work towards a better future.
What a dark day. His loss is immeasurable, but like those who came and left before him, what he has given us will live on forever.
May you rest in peace, Sir. And to his family and friends, my heart goes to you on this day, October 28th, 2026.
Great actor who inspired millions. Thank you, Patrick.
Downvote away but I'm not particularly sad. He lived a great life and died at a fair age. If anything had been different, I'd worry that we wouldn't have gotten the same guy.
This is going to get voted into oblivion, But I think NG is pretty dull, and Piccard even duller.
Edit: I wrote that the fictional character is dull, not that Mr. Stewart was. I think he was a good actor, and seemed a nice guy.
People in this thread seem to confuse the character with the actor.
Bad timing on my part, though.

The mention that his illness struggle was brief is the absolute only bright spot of today's news. And even that sucks, but best for his family.
I think he had declined a little over the last years, but watching interviews of him years ago about Star Trek... he got it. He understood the bigger message behind the scifi parts of the story. Others did too to some degree, but watching him talk about it was gold. And to think that he walked into the show in the beginning and thought it was both a mistake and a short-lived thing. He was a big part of why it did so well.
Damn, why do all the cool people keep dying.

I was hoping it was a hoax when I saw the community name. RIP as you explore a frontier many have travelled before but none have told about.
