Majel Barret Roddenberry Passes Away


My heart broke a little bit with this news.

Majel Barret-Roddenberry, (widow of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry) died Thursday Dec. 18 due to Leukemia.

Roddenberry was involved in the "Star Trek" universe for more than four decades.

Personally, I really enjoyed her role as in Star Trek: The Next Generation as the Betazoid Ambassador Lwaxana Troi, mother of ship's counselor Deanna Troi.

She will be missed.
