My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today.
Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man. Just last month, on Sept. 14, he turned 90, on the same day Brad and I celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary. I will always treasure that he and I shared that date.
Walter was more than Chekov. He was a writer, a teacher, a thoughtful man, and a loyal friend. To the fans who loved him for so many years, thank you. He loved you too.
Rest well, my dear friend. Keep navigating a steady course.

@georgetakei he’s a legend. You all mean so much to so many. Walter Koenig’s fall in Star Trek IV scared the hell out of me. (I was young) I’ll celebrate him today.

@georgetakei Big hugs to you and Walter's family and friends. Thank you for giving us the most amazing childhood memories, imaginations and inspirations.
️ As wacky as the world is today (and I am sure this is only a reflection pause), it still raised some of the most amazing and creatives and engineers that have made the world a better. -
