JUST IN: Patrick Stewart, known for his role in "Star Trek," has died at the age of 86. Stewart passed away from Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia. The actor grew up in a small coal-mining town in England, in a one-bedroom home with two brothers, and had little formal education. He became obsessed with reading at a young age. He sold furniture and worked at a city newspaper in his teens before saving enough money to attend drama school. He ended up receiving a full scholarship to the Bristol Old Vic Theater School at 17, which is where his acting career began. He started balding at 19 due to hereditary alopecia, yet still found success in the acting world. "We announce with great sorrow the passing of Sir Patrick Stewart yesterday at his home in Los Angeles, in the loving care of his beloved wife Sunny, following a brief and poignant journey with Alzheimer's Disease and Lewy Body Dementia," his family announced. "He has been held in the warm embrace of family and friends, surrounded by live music, prayer, tears, laughter, and the kind of profound emotion that only he could inspire after a lifetime of devotion to us all. We will forever cherish the peaceful ease and reflection on his face, an enduring reminder of his invincible grace."
