Lisa often visited the set of The Beast, at the time, Patrick was already battling pancreatic cancer but he still continued to work as though nothing was amiss. “He was fantastic. He had challenges because he was still doing chemo and it wasn’t always easy, but he’d suit up and show up. He was always there,” Lisa Niemi told PEOPLE magazine.

It wasn’t just her beauty that Patrick loved, but also her sense of honesty. “She was different than anyone I’d known. Like a flower. If I started my macho stuff, she’d cut me off fast,” Patrick told PEOPLE magazine back in 1984. “I’d be dead without her. She helped me break my self-destructive tendencies. I was an insecure little baby. I don’t ever see us apart. She’s my creative partner.”
