Loss of Commander Data

[Chris Savage]

I'm posting this here, because nothing else needs to be said. At roughly 11 months older than me, he was very withdrawn, having suffered emotional issues most of his life, followed by physical issues later, surpassing even my own. It's difficult to keep losing people that you were sure would outlive you. He is only survived by a single sibling.

He adopted the Commander Data persona due to emotional issues. This gave him a persona that could escape emotion, keep everything on the level and minimize unnecessary interaction as his participation had been waning over the years. Data was online via the Commodore 64 before I was. I am taken back to Star Trek: Nemesis, once again, but IRL.

RIP
