    We I used to plan small comic boom/sci-fi conventions, she was the first "big name" to say yes, which led other big names to say yes too. She was an awesome lady. RIP.

    It is going to be harder and harder the people I loved as a child die. This makes me so sad.

    She also played Counselor Troi's mother on STNG, no? Sad, but what a cool life she had.

    oh, :(

    I never know what to say in this situation...


    But I must confess my trekkiness.

    I always loved the computer voice. I could listen to it all day...

    Her Nurse Chapel was one of the reasons I loved the original Start Trek. Her unrequited feelings for Spock made an interesting sideline on the show. Too bad it was never played up more.


    Rest amongst the stars, Majel.

    Aww, as a kid who watched TNG with her parents, of course I remember this woman! She played Troi's mom, if I'm not mistaken. (I did have to take a brain dive to find that name.)

    @KrisP: but the Sacred Chalice of Rixx is a moldy old pot!


    But seriously, I loved her Lwaxana Troi character and it sounds like she was a fascinating person. She will be missed, both in the Star Trek Universe and ours.

    That's incredibly sweet. Thanks for that nice obit, Maria. I read about her death on Cnn, but didn't read the story.

    My father met her in the early 1990's at a convention. She was very nice and took a picture with him and everything. I hope she rests in peace.

    Damn. Everytime I hear about someone dying from Leukemia I get a little more scared (Dad has it)- it's a terrible disease, and no way to go.


    RIP Majel!

    @Samanthrax: I am sending good thoughts about your dad! I have never known anyone with Leukemia, but my dad has been fighting lymphoma on and off for 7 years (currently in remission!) and it really does hurt every time you see someone die of the disease.
