Majel Barrett Roddenberry passed away this morning at the age of 76. The first lady of Star Trek’ died of leukemia at her home in Bel Air. At her side were her son Eugene ‘Rod’ Roddenberry along with family and friends (TrekMovie.com).

Icy chills.  This is a big loss for the Roddenberry family as well as the fan community.  It breaks my heart, and my thoughts and prayers go out to her friends and family.

I met Majel, and I have to say, she was the same in person as she was on Star Trek:  Full of love and humor.
