Alan Rickman, also known to the world of magic as Severus Snape has been said to have been battling with pancreatic cancer for the past few years – which ultimately claimed his life at the age of 69.
Rickman’s signature sarcastic under-tones and sincere cynical reverence made him the obvious option to play the role of Snape.
Despite his impressive filmography, including roles in award-winning movies such as Robin Hood, Sweeney Todd, and Quigley Down Under, he will forever be recognized as Severus Snape, the Potions Master and Half-Blood Prince in the realm of magic.
Those lived on by Severous Snape noted that during his time of passing he was surrounded by his family and loved ones and at the precipice of death; a doe was seen in the outside window of his house.
Always.
