Thoughts on the passing of Alan Rickman

Alan Rickman is best known for his role as Snape in the Harry Potter movies; however, he was first introduced to me in the film adaptation of Sense and Sensiblity (by Jane Austen). I loved him as Colonel Brandon and as I read through Austen's book this past summer I pictured Rickman sitting next to Kate Winslet reading to her. Him coming to the recuse of Brandon's lady love once she fell ill. Of course, his portrayal of Snape is one of my favorites. Mainly because Snape is my favorite Hogwarts Professor; in the books. Alan played him so beautifully and completely. So in honor of Mr. Rickman...I raise my wand and say with a heavy heart .... "ALWAYS" ⚡️
