Farewell Scotty

James Dohan has passed away.

" Star Trek' Star James Doohan Dies

By BOB THOMAS, Associated Press Writer/ 31 minutes ago/

James Doohan, the burly chief engineer of the Starship Enterprise in the
original "Star Trek" TV series and movies who responded to the command
"Beam me up, Scotty," died Wednesday. He was 85.

..."
The article continues.

A great supporting actor in a very likable role. Taught me the secret to customer management. Under-promise and over-deliver.

God bless you James.

Very sad to hear that. He was always my favorite character. (What do you expect, he was the one fixing stuff). I always liked it on the rare occasions he was left in command of the ship. Forget diplomacy, phasers to maximum, and light 'em up if they look at us funny. Very likable guy, too. He'll be missed.

I grew up watching the original Star Trek series. Scotty always struck me as a class act on and off screen. He will be missed
