Sad News: Leonard Nimoy Has Passed Away

Post by Mike DiCenso » Fri Feb 27, 2015 9:51 pm

It is with a heavy heart that I must report the death of actor Leonard Nimoy who has passed away due to complications of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease:

Let us all have a moment of silence for this legend.

A man of many talents, he truly was a legend of sci fi. He will be greatly missed.

As I said on another forum, I can't help but think that his final post on his Twitter was a farewell, but he didn't want to upset fans by saying it was a farewell, because he cared for us all. A terrific man, a terrific actor, and he will be sorely missed.

I guess this solves the paradox problem of two Spocks in one place for future Trek movies.

I looked that post up after I saw your comment here. Wow. I think you're right. Very poignant, very beautiful, very true.
