RIP Majel Barrett Roddenberry

I don’t know how the hell this got past me, but the First Lady of Star Trek died on Dec 18 2008 at the age of 76. She died peacefully in her sleep with family around. She had leukemia. Her funeral was held yesterday in Los Angeles. This article has more info about Majel as well as the charities they’d like fans to donate to in her name.

OR you could make contributions to your local shelters to help your local displaced pets.

It’s a sad time for Star Trek fans. Now there is no one to hold the reigns. If the trailers of the JJ Abrams atrocity are any indication, I’d say we’ve seen the last of decent Star Trek productions. The franchise will never be the same. :-(
