He was great in everything right up to the end. Fringe, Star Trek reboot, even the voice work on the Big Bang Theory episode.

Farewell Spock.

When I was a kid I used to get Mr Spock and Dr Spock mixed up

RIP

He had a great attitude about Trek. Respected what it gave him but branched out into other areas too. A sad loss.

OK, guys... no big deal. All we need is to secure a Genesis device and an empty torpedo tube and we'll have him back in no time.

While this seems sorta sudden, he lived a good, long and prosperous life - one that most people would be lucky to live.

*didn't know he used to be a smoker.

Re: RIP Leonard Nimoy (1931-2015)

I saw he was released last week and thought nothing of it.
Glad I quit smoking before it created anything like COPD

Death takes us all but still so sad...

Heads up, Academy, you better not forget him on next year's In Memoriam!

Someone get "Amazing Grace" ready on the bagpipes...this guy will be missed.

His final tweet, Feb. 23:

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