PATRICK SHAI PASSES ON The legendary actor Patrick Shai's family confirmed that he died on Saturday (22 January).
His industry friends such as Sello Maake KaNcube and Fana Mokoena are still grappling with his passing.
The actor was loved for his energy and for bringing his A-game into the roles he played over the years.
The River was Shai's last show before he took his own life this past weekend.
Lunga Mofokeng also shared a video with the cast for Patrick's wife Mmasechaba Shai on their recent 38th anniversary.
The wisdom I've gained in a short space of time with you is incredible.
You told me to keep pushing and how much you and your wife love the work we do as a team.
Went on to acknowledge my scenes that got you excited about the craft. I thank you, Great King, wrote Lunga.
