Leonard Nimoy, who starred in the original "Star Trek" series, died Friday.
The thesp posted
his final message on Twitter on Sunday, time-stamped at 11:36 p.m. Pacific Time, which said: "A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP."
The last abbreviation, of course, is a reference to the Spock catchphrase, "Live long and prosper," which Nimoy used as a sign-off for nearly all of his posts.
Since Nimoy's death was announced, the message had been retweeted more than 30,000 times.
