Just prior to the opening of Star Trek Month, The Couch Potato wishes to pay its heartfelt respects and condolences to the family of Leonard Nimoy, who found fame and brought joy to the world as Mister Spock.
BBC News - Leonard Nimoy, Star Trek's Mr Spock, dies at 83
Nimoy had been hospitalised several times as a result of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and was rushed to hospital a few days ago with severe chest pains. He died this morning in Los Angeles.
There will be a special, lengthy tribute to the man who was Spock during Star Trek Month, but I wanted to make this post now, having just heard of his sad passing.
Logic suggests this is a very sad day for all Trekkers, and everyone who grew up on Star Trek. Our thoughts are with his family and friends. We will never forget him.
