Leonard Nimoy Passes Away

You missed one - Grace Lee Whitney, who played Yeoman Janice Rand during the first season. She was released after only eight episodes, but came back to reprise her role in bit parts in almost all of the movies. She's still with us at 84. :)

He certainly joins an honorable group: Gene Roddenberry, Mr. Scott, and of course, Dr. McCoy. I'm sure he and the good doctor will have much to discuss about what came after life has passed.

You forgot Majel Barrett (Rodenberry). She was a notable fixture on most of the Star Trek series, first as Nurse Chappel in the original series, then as Lwaxana Troi in Next Generation and Deep Space Nine. She and Nimoy were the only two actors that played in the original pilot, The Cage, who then went on to the regular series. In the pilot, she played Captain Pike's First Officer.

Too bad the new notes make this almost impossible. Still, Spock made it onto currency (I know this is an old thing in Canada, but his death sparked a new wave of them).

I forgot she was in the original pilot as well. Don't forget she is the voice of the Enterprise as well as Deep Space Nine and Voyager. Only thing I can't remember is did she have any part in Enterprise?



What are people's favorite Episode with Mr Nemoy in them?

Amok Time, Spock's Brain, Is There in Truth No Beauty are 3 of my favorites episodes.



edit: This might be a good place for this: in this Mr. Nimoy explains the origin of the Vulcan hand greeting:

No. She never had a character role in that one, and their computer didn't have any voice capability. I don't recall whether her voice was used for the ship's computer in Voyager, but I know she had no role in that one either. Her direct involvement ended with Deep Space Nine, and she only showed up there a couple of times that I recall.

They shot Mr. Scott into space, I wouldn't be surprised if they did it with Mr. Spock as well.

Just got home from two weeks in Colombia. Only story from the US (apart from diplomacy/political stuff) was this one. Guess we forgot to wish him to live long and prosper. I had a Spock mask cut off a cereal packet in the early 70's. My brothers were Bones and Kirk. I admit I changed it for a Jackson 5 badge.

Well today marks the one year anniversary of the death of Leonard Nimoy, worlds feeling mighty empty without him.

He did get quite a few to join him lately, though. He won't be lonely :)



I do miss Mr. Nimoy. That is certain...

Watching Star Trek Into Darkness doesn't feel the same anymore with him gone.
