Yeah, apologies for the multiple edits.

Am glad she finished her voice recordings for Star Trek 11 - another reason to hope the film turns out well.

Wow. It's saddening how many of these Trek icons are gone. May they all rest in peace; they will be remembered.

Just saw this on CNN. I didn't realize how much younger she was than Gene.

Sleep well Lwaxana :( A true Star Trek legend, in EVERY sense of the word. She will be greatly missed.
