Rest in Peace Captain Nimoy.

He always was and always will be our friend. We cried when he died and we cried when he came back and damn it Jim, we cried when he died again.

Leonard Nimoy was certainly not your average actor by a long shot and Ambassador Spock was certainly not your run of the mill alien.

We cussed the screen when Spock died in that nuclear reactor and we swore off ever watching another ST movie, but then they brought him back and everything was all better. Spock touched more lives than any alien in history at a time when the world needed an outsider who could make us all feel more human. We will never forget the amazing actions of Spock or the amazing actor who mind melded him into our hearts.  

Of all the souls we encountered on our journeys into televised entertainment, his was by far, the most human. It will take time to heal the wounds in our hearts left by the absence of this noble human being who reminded us that inside the color of our blood is the same, unless of course, you are a Vulcan.

He lived long and prospered greatly and he taught us what it means to be human. Rest in peace Captain Nimoy. You will be sorely missed.
