Goodness.....Yesterday, I saw a large road sign up in Pennsylvania,  Route 6, 209 - but drove by before I could read it.

So I wasn't sure what it was about.

 

Sad to hear this. That was very thoughtful of the State of PA  to post such a tribute. 

 

Thank you 'Lt. Uhura' 💜 for all the Star Trek journeys. May you explore 'Strange New Worlds' up there in the Galaxy.

Met her many times at conventions over the years even as recently as 2019. Always lovely and gracious to the fans. Only three members remain from the original Star Trek cast. 😔
