Leonard Nimoy played scores of roles in a showbiz career which lasted more than six decades.

But with his death on Friday at his Bel Air home at age 83, according to multiple reports, he will be remembered and loved by a character known simply as Spock.

Very sad. Sounds like it happened due to complications from years of smoking. He tweeted out that smoking is bad and don't do it, just days before his death.

He tweeted that often. He stopped smoking like 30 years ago too. His last tweet was:

You can picture his tweets being read in that gravely voice of his. He will be missed.
