Tucked away in North Carolina is the small town of Lake Lure where Patrick Swayze once twirled Jennifer Grey around the dance floor.

The town served as the setting for Dirty Dancing and in remembrance of the great man and actor, the town is planning a memorial to celebrate Patrick Swayze.

On Saturday, the town will honor him with a memorial service at 7 p.m. at Firefly Cove, recognizable to fans as Camp Chimney.

The service is free, but visitors will be asked to donate to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.

Sounds like a wonderful way to remember a wonderful man.
