RIP. I hope he got to see everything.
A great actor, and a decent human. Rest peacefully Captain. You’ve earned it.
Great actor who inspired millions. Thank you, Patrick.
I always feared Sir Ian McKellen would be the first of the two to leave us.
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.
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.

I can’t believe William shatner outlived him.
That was exactly my first thought.
Shatner is 9 years older.
he cheated by using that space ribbon time heaven thing.
And at least the last time I saw him, seemed to be doing amazingly well
Well as if it wasn’t enough bad news already! Shatner is still alive! /s
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.
Lewy Body Dementia is what Robin Williams had, and why he killed himself. It’s vicious.
From the statement it sounds like it wasn’t a long battle with it, which if true would be for the best.
That was my first thought as well. You’re right, I think the statement said something like “a brief and poignant battle” and honestly the briefer the better.
I think he went out on his own terms. Logically highly likely…he wasn’t ill for long, it doesn’t usually work that way with dementia. Poignant is an interesting word to use describing his battle.
Truly hope so, if that was his will, tricky ground when will itself is compromised. As someone with that in my family and potentially my future, I would truly appreciate the mercy of an easy self directed end at a time of my choosing. We however do not live in an enlightened future and euthanizing the inconvenient is right up the nazi alley.
RIP, Captain.
This one hurts
Make it not so =(
Do not engage 😥
Agreed
My favorite Unknown British Shakespearean Actor.
