Patrick Swayze passed ten years ago today, September 14, 2009, at age 57. Of the over 600 people I've interviewed since 1996, Patrick was, by far, the nicest. A real person. No pretense. No diva, movie star nonsense. Just another guy that I was having a chat with. In a time when we see ex-Nazis (and other despots) living to the century mark, the untimely passing of someone like Patrick Swayze is made all that much more palpable. Our interview is recreated here and, I hope, captures the spirit of our meeting.
