Majel Barrett Roddenberry Dies

[filkertom]

Sadness. Majel Barrett, the widow of Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, has passed away at the age of 76. Ms. Barrett Roddenberry, of course, played Nurse Christine Chapel in the original and animated Star Trek, Lwaxana Troi on Next Gen and DS9, and the ship's computer in the movies (including the upcoming one) and every single Trek series (including some of the video games). Truly, the First Lady of Star Trek.

Thanks to ponderoid for the heads-up.
