Majel Barrett Roddenberry: 1932 – 2008

jewel December 18th, 2008

I just read that Majel Barrett Roddenberry has died of lukemia.  I’ve been rewatching Star Trek: The Next Generation and have particularly enjoyed her her Lwaxana Troi character. Sure, she could be annoying, but she was interesting and entertaining and uninhibited.  And, hey, she wasn’t my mom.

Also, which I think is particulary cool, her family has requested that in leiu of flowers, that donations be made to Precious Paws or CARE.

Rest in peace, Majel.
