Majel Barrett-Roddenberry Passes...

[MikeTheC]

Ok, so this isn't exactly technology-related, but given the fact that so many of us tech geeks are also sci-fi fans, I thought it appropriate to mention this.

Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, wife of the late Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek, died today in her home of leukemia.

I actually got to meet her at a Star Trek convention that my local Star Trek group had organized and run. She was such a very warm and personable lady, and I don't think there was a person in attendance who didn't like her. Everyone has their time, I know, and we can't hold onto everything and everyone forever, but it really sucks when we loose the nice ones.

Rest in peace, Majel.

thats very very sad.

Did you know she acted in more Star Trek series and movies than any other actor.

Granted she was the ships computer but hey what a credit to your name.

A very sad loss indeed, she was the only real tie all the star trek series have had.
She was real pretty back in TOS

A sad day indeed. At least she will continue to be remembered along with the other Star Trek actors.
