Patrick Swayze’s younger brother Sean Swayze has died.
Sean’s son, Jesse Swayze, told TMZ that his father died on Dec. 15 in Los Angeles.
According to the death certificate obtained by the outlet, Sean died of an acute upper gastrointestinal bleed and severe metabolic acidosis brought on by cirrhosis of the liver caused by alcoholism.
He was 63 years old.
Sean’s cousin Rachel Leon shared a tribute to him on Instagram, writing that she was “heartbroken” over his death.
“Our thoughts and prayers go out to his brother Don Swayze and his children, Cassie Swayze, Kyle Swayze and Jesse Swayze,” she wrote. “We are praying hard for the entire family during this difficult time.”
“Please know that we love you and are always here for you,” she continued. “Sean, I love you so much, and we will miss you dearly.”
Patrick and Sean had three other siblings — brother Don and sisters Vicki and Bambi, who are still living.
