Good Evening!!! Today's post is going to pay tribute to a wonderful actor, director and animal lover....Leonard Nimoy passed away today at the age of 83. He was best known for his role as Spock on the television series Star Trek and he later went on to reprise that role many times in the movies. But he was more than just an actor. He was also a director, a singer, poet, and author. He appeared in many television series (Perry Mason, Dragnet, Wagon Train, Bonanza, Get Smart, Mission:Impossible, and many more), He had a love of photography from the time he was a child until is recent death. His work has been shown in R. Michelson Galleries in North Hampton and at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art. He made his directorial debut in 1973 with "Death on a Barge" a segment for an episode of Night Gallery. He also directed Star Trek III: The Search for Spock in 1984 and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home in 1986. In 1987 he went on to direct Three Men and A Baby starring Tom Selleck. He also authored two volumes his autobiography: I AM NOT SPOCK in 1975 and I AM SPOCK in 1995. To me, he will always be Spock. I remember seeing the movies growing up and always being perplexed as to why Spock was the way he was. To me he was unusual and intriguing. I loved to watch the interactions between Spock and Bones. Those always made me laugh. I never had the pleasure of meeting the man but I would have loved to have met him and worked with him too. He was an amazing person and human being. He had a love for animals as well. Another star has went supernova and died and he will be sorely missed. His famous saying "Live Long and Prosper" is one that will be remembered for all time. Leonard Nimoy most certainly Lived Long and Prospered. May he sleep in the arms of the angels and be at peace and no longer in pain. Anyways...Lots of Love To You Jeremy!!! Stay Safe Wherever you Are Babe.....Until Later...Jeremy's Flame, out!!!
