Farewells of 2024, Part 6, The Star Trek Family

And last but certainly not least, we say farewell to all of the veterans of Star Trek. Of course, many of these performers worked on many projects outside of the Star Trek Universe, (Hello-Teri Garr!) but I always honor them for the little piece of the future they blessed us Trekkies with through the years. Godspeed old friends, and blessings as you travel the great beyond.
