Canadian musician Jeff Healy passed away on Sunday at age 41 from cancer.

Jeff was in the movie Roadhouse with Patrick Swayze, and sadly it has been reported that Patrick Swayze has pancreatic cancer. Jeff is the blind guitarist and Internationally known.

Jeff's music includes Confidence man, See the Light, Angel Eyes, While my Guitar Gently Weeps; Apparently he has a new alum slated to be released in North America in April - he was set to tour in Germany and Europe.

He was diagnosed as a child with eye cancer and blind at the age of 3.

Very sad:cry:

(Google him and you will learn so much more about him-I just can't do him justice. I had the opportunity to meet him and the band in the 80's when they were popular - nice guys.)

I've seen him in concert a time or two and he was very talented. Sad for his family as well.

Everybody from my favorite movie is dying.

Next they'll be announcing that Sam Elliott choked to death on his moustache.

My best friend an I share a birthday with Patrick Swayze and we will continue to celebrate it every year.
