He was known to have COPD for awhile now.

This guy was a class act; loved everything I saw him in, especially as Mr. Spock. Very sorry to see him go

I know it's a "tweet" and carries some inherent superficiality because it's social media, but I think this is a very cool final thought from his Twitter account:

When I heard about this I was stunned at first. But then I thought he lived a good long life. This is a man who had a career doing something that he loved doing, and that is acting as well as directing. I grew up watching the original Star Trek series, and I remember him all too well in the role of Mr. Spock, but he did so many other TV programs and roles as well in his vast career. He also hosted the syndicated series In Search Of for awhile. He also made a career as a director, he directed the fourth Star Trek movie, The Voyage Home along with the clever comedy film Three Men and a Baby. So, Leonard Nimoy had a good rich and fullfilling life, we will miss him but his work lives on after him.

May he RIP, I made that hand sign the second I learned he had passed on. I hope his star trek image lives on for ages to come and be a symbol for what we should do once we travel the next frontier.
