Argent Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 One of the most iconic figures in the lives of many geeks, Leonard Nimoy who played Spock in Star Trek: The Original Series passed away today in his home in Los Angeles. A wonderful actor, a wonderful human (and vulcan!) being, a wonderful friend according to those who knew him, and a wonderful honorary grandfather to all who wanted or needed him. I myself don't have a personal story to share, so I'll borrow from Captain Kirk: Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most ... human 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briar King Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I was super bummed hearing this today. Spock is even more beloved by some then Kirk is. I hope a station tributes him by marathoning the movies soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreathTaker Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Most stars deaths don't make me sad, his does though... I'm the same way, I think I'm more sad at this than I was about Robin Williams. Thanks to my mother, I was a Star Trek fan from practically the womb. I has a sad today. Me as well, my mom says that the day she got home from the hospital she had no idea what to do, so she sat me down on the couch with her and we watched TNG. Later on I got my dad's old Star Trek projector that had everyone drawn around the outside and had tons of Trek pictures. MY PARENTS MADE ME NERDS!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
