Patrick was one of those icons who we somehow all took for granted would always be with us.
I grew up as a fan, and was later gifted the privilege of becoming a colleague and friend, working with him for many years on “American Dad!”, “Family Guy”, and “Ted”. He was that rare actor who could take any bit of dialogue and elevate it, making a good writer sound great, and a great writer sound masterful. He was also as humble as they come. I remember exchanging emails with him a number of years ago when he was beginning day 1 of a new film. He commented to me that he always walked onto a new set feeling like the biggest novice there. My stunned reaction was the same as anyone’s would be. I said, “Patrick, if you feel that way, the rest of us are screwed.” We have lost a legendary actor today, and for many of us, a good friend. He will be deeply missed by the entire planet.

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Thai Soldiers Held a Korean Hill Until the Armistice.
Chinese troops kept attacking. The Thai battalion held its position.
It was July 1953. The Korean War was nearing its armistice, but at Hill 351 near Kimhwa, Thai soldiers still had a position to defend.
On 13 July, the battalion, attached to the U.S. 2nd Infantry Division, moved onto the hill. From 14 to 27 July, it repelled repeated Chinese attacks with the division’s supporting fire and close-range combat.
An approaching agreement did not make the battlefield safe. Until the fighting stopped, the men holding that hill still faced the possibility of never going home.
They held on until the armistice was signed on 27 July.
South Korea’s Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs credits their defense with keeping Hill 351 on the southern side after the armistice.
For these Thai soldiers, the final days of the war meant defending ground far from their own country. For Korea, their service became part of the history of the land they helped protect.
As a Korean, I offer my deep gratitude to Thailand’s veterans and to the Thai people.
When the guns finally fell silent, what was the first thing those soldiers thought of?

The lighting in these works is just absolutely incredible!
I also really like the detail in the houses with the warm light shining through just one window.
Each house mimics the atmospheric feeling of the whole painting with just one warm light fighting against the harsh all encompassing dark.
