RIP Leonard Nimoy

 

[IcecreamLtDan]

Very sad, he will be greatly missed. RIP!!!

 

[Owain Taggart]

Damn. Guess it had to happen eventually. Feel like there's a big void right now

 

[Mr. Adventure]

I feel incredibly selfish saying so but I've been dealing with some stuff lately and it's an especially bad time to lose a cherished childhood icon so it's an extra whammy right now. Saw his reported last tweet and found it poignant:

A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP

"Of my friend, I can only say this: of all the souls I have encountered in my travels... his was the most... Human."

"I find that remark ... insulting."

 

[Mojochi]

It is a far far better thing I do than I have ever done before... a far better resting place I go to than I have ever known

I couldn't believe when I saw this this morning. RIP Mr. Spock.

It was thanks to Mr. Nimoy's greatness and cultural legacy that Tuvok was the first Vulcan I really connected to; I was of course always aware of Spock, but it was a while before I appreciated him as more than just my mother's childhood Vulcan officer.

Farewell, Mr. Nimoy. Thanks to you, Spock of Vulcan will be remembered many generations hence.

I had a feeling when he was rushed into hospital that we'd get bad news sooner rather than later sad news, guess you know you're getting old when all your childhood heroes start to pass away.

Tuvok! Ah kids...

That was a really great picture though.

About 22 years ago, I went to children's carnival dressed as Spock. A year later, I took it a step further, and I went dressed as Leonard Nimoy. Well, I was nine, I didn't really know how Mr. Nimoy dressed privately, but I dressed neat, and when the other kids asked who I was supposed to be, I answered: "I'm Leonard Nimoy".

So, yeah, I'm a fan. Farewell, sir.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Apparently Syfy is showing Nimoy programming from 9AM - 2PM EST Sunday.

Very cool. I'm sure Nimoy would have a warm chuckle about that.

That's a great photo! Tim Russ certainly did a great job playing a Vulcan true to the spirit of the people that Nimoy helped create while being a distinct and unique character.
