Has found her way home.
Magel Barrett Roddenberry, widow of famed "Star Trek" creator, Gene Roddenberry, who played so many interesting roles in 38 years of the series, including just two weeks ago finishing off her part as the voice of the ships computer (a role she has reprised many times over in all of the "Trek" series) for the upcoming 2009 movie, has passed away, on Thursday, December 18, 2009.
You can read the news story here. She was the glue that passed through all of the series - as computer voice, as Nurse Chapel in the original series, as the intrepid "mother" of STNG's resident psychic (a role which she continued through into "Deep Space 9", falling in love with Odo). She also was the executive producer for two other TV science fiction series, "Andromeda" and "Earth: Final Conflict", so I guess it could be said that she certainly made her mark in the Universe.
Somewhere up there, she's smiling down on us, probably hitching a ride on a comet to who knows where!!! Bless you, Magel, for walking among us all of these years!
