James Doohan was an amazing performer.
If you look in the Star Trek Concordance (yes I own a copy that I bought in the 70's) you'll begin to appreciate the depths of this thespian by seeing all the other characters he did in almost every episode.

He will be sadly missed and I'll be raising a glass and talking into my mouse, in respect for him, tonight :tear: :tear: :tear:

"At about eleven-thirty that night, I was walking back to my command post from another command post, with Tommy O'Brennan on my right, about a foot and a half away. We were walking around a large shell hole . . .

And that was when the machine gun opened up on us.

It hit me and spun me around. Staggering, I fell down into the shell hole. Tommy hadn't been hit at all, and for a moment I hadn't fully registered that I'd been struck. I just knew something had shoved me with tremendous force.

Then I looked at my right hand and saw the blood covering it. I could see the holes in my middle finger." - Jimmy Doohan, World War II

He managed to hide his missing finger in all but a few shots in all of the Star Trek shows and movies he was in.

Yeah, I read that the other day.

Technically, he'll become a part of Earth, like Gene and Tim Leary did. The company sends a rocket up there with the ashes, but what they don't say is how eventually it smacks into the thermosphere, disintegrates, and someone, somewhere, breathes in a little bit of them a few weeks later.
