Marvel Studios has released a statement on the tragic passing of Sir Patrick Stewart.
“All of us at Marvel Studios are deeply saddened by the passing of Sir Patrick Stewart. Sir Patrick brought Professor Charles Xavier to life with extraordinary grace, intelligence, and humanity, defining the character for generations of fans, from X-Men to Logan to Avengers: Doomsday.
He was a singular talent, a generous collaborator, and a true gentleman. Our hearts go out to his wife Sunny, his children, his friends, and the countless fans around the world whose lives he touched with his art.”

Fear no more the heat o' the sun,
Nor the furious winter's rages;
Thou thy worldly task hast done,
Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. 😭 💔

He loved the people, and the people loved him.
As evident in this video.
82 years old.
Fighting cancer.
In crazy august heat.
Still belting it out 100% and entirely full of joy.
And the crowd ( once again) showed him that love in return.
RIP Donnie❤️

Today, we lost a true Pittsburgh icon.
Donnie Iris was more than a local legend - he was part of the soundtrack of our city.
Thank you, Donnie, for sharing your music with the world & for uniting our city through our shared pride in you, your music & your legacy.

In 1980 our class went on a field trip to KTWO Radio in Casper, WY. Mr Bob Price gave as us a tour and then passed out random 45 RPM records as gifts . The 45 I received was this one, "Ah! Leah!" by Donnie Iris. A real banger.
Donnie Iris has passed away at the age of 83. I still have the 45 somewhere around here.

What a sad day it is to anchor the news when I guy you think the world of passes. @donnieiris is a legend and all of us are so lucky he shared his gift. Rest In Peace my friend. Hit your wedges as a high as your falsetto. God bless. 💔🙏💔

Donnie Iris was so Pittsburgh, that he celebrated when he was able to buy back in 2004 Buick Park Avenue! We miss you King Cool! audacy.com/kdkaradio/news/lo…

I looked him up. I remember “The Rapper”. Fun song. RIP Donnie.
I know you weren't a big fan of Donnie Iris but his death today has devastated Pittsburgh and many of your fans. His last performance despite having just gone through radiation was still spot on despite sitting in a chair.
