Real men. We need them so badly right now.

Goodbye, Charles.

Glenn Carts 🇨🇦 :

The tragic thing is, those people who aren’t fans of Star Trek nor Marvel movies, may not know what the impact he had on those franchises.

🆘🇺🇸03earthangel🇺🇸🆘 :

💔 I started watching Star Trek: The Next Generation with my Father when I was like 3 or 4. My father abandoned my disabled mother of three when I was 5. I continued watching it. I sadly thought my dad was just like him so I felt as if he was my father. Although my father ended up being nothing like him I couldn't have picked a better person to look up to growing up. Thank you Sir Patrick Stewart for all the memories 💔 You will be missed by a great many people

I saw Sir Patrick in the Tempest years ago. He was flawless. Being a TV generation kid, I’m aware the impact his loss will have on TV viewers and movie goers. But he’s such a loss to the stage too
