Patrick Swayze cremated, ashes headed home
Closure for fans and family: The body of the late Patrick Swayze has been cremated and the ashes given to his wife, Lisa Niemi, according to media reports.
The official death certificate lists the cause of death as cardiorespiratory arrest cause by advanced pancreatic cancer.
RadarOnline says Lisa plans to spread Swayze’s ashes across his New Mexico ranch. The location is now a wildlife preserve and timber farm.
Isn't it nice how much more dignified Swayze's passing has been than say ... Michael Freakin' Jackson?
