Very sad. We knew it was likely coming, but he was a giant, and will remain so.

Heard about it earlier from Facebook! He made original 60s NBC Trek worth watching (I saw it through from the three remastered DVD releases of the same).

I just saw this on Yahoo!. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide a link (at work)

Leonard Nimoy, both lived long & prospered.

And because of him, so did we all.

Thank you sir.

Very sad to hear of his passing - wonderful memories of growing up, anxiously waiting for the next Star Trek episode.

To paraphrase one of Spock's many famous line "He is dead Jim but not in my mind".

Deepest condolences to his family, friends and folks lucky enough to have experienced the Star Trek universe with Lenord Nimoy in it.

Regards,

I saw Nimoy speak a few years ago at a convention (2010?). He was eloquent and funny, as always. I wanted to do the personal meet and greet, but we were pressed for time (babysitters!) and had to go. I'll always be sad I didn't take that extra half hour to shake his hand. Still, I'm glad I did take a few hours to go and hear him speak. That was only the second time I saw him; the first was in 1975 when, as an 8-year-old, I won tickets to a New York Star Trek convention and saw the entire cast of the original show.

@Sam Favate: I was at that 1975 convention also.

Variety's obit:

No mention of his excellent voice work in TRANSFORMERS 3: DARK OF THE MOON.

It mentions that his first language was Yiddish.

Did he ever use Yiddish in any of his film or TV portrayals?

Sad news. RIP Mr. Nimoy. I remember my one "sighting" of him. I was in the drive-through line at Westwood's In-N-Out with a buddy when I looked in the rearview mirror and saw what I was 99% sure was Leonard Nimoy in the car behind me (I think it was an SUV). I asked my friend if that was him, he turned around and said "yup, I think his kid goes to UCLA" which is located in Westwood.

RIP, Mr. Nimoy.

I guess the torch is truly passed now.

My favorite Star Trek character of all Trek characters. I also liked In Search Of...

Very Sad news. Rest in Peace Mr. Spock.
