Robert Walker Jr, who played Charles Evans in the TOS episode "Charlie X" passed away on Thursday, aged 79.  www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/robert-walker-jr-dead-star-trek-actor-son-hollywood-superstars-was-79-1260215A very fine young actor, who could play comedy in "Ensign Pulver", or drama, as in the aforementioned Trek episode. The final scene on the Bridge as he is taken back by the Thasians still gives me chills. Was also in "Easy Rider", and well as a Columbo episode, amongst other parts. Another sad Trek loss. Condolences to his family and friends. |

It’s sometimes difficult to understand how these actors can become so old and pass away when we see them in their prime on the screen. Wife and I were playing Star Trek Catan and I commented that all but 3 of the main characters are gone. Possibly 4, is Nurse (Doctor) Chapel still alive? I can never remember how to spell her real name

Unfortunately, Majel Barrett-Roddenberry who played Chapel passed away almost eleven years ago. variety.com/2008/scene/markets-festivals/majel-barrett-roddenberry-dies-1117997607/#! I always liked that creator James Cawley asked her to record lines for the fan series "Star Trek: New Voyages/Phase II" for use as the computer again! |

So now it’s only Sulu, Chekhov and Uhura. And I’ve heard she’s in a bad mental state. :-(
