Jane Wyatt/Amanda Grayson
I read today that Jane Wyatt passed at the age of 96.
Some of you know that I am a Star Trek: The Original Series fan.
This show marked my life in a lot of ways…I was so young and impressionable then. Of course, I was very attached to Spock, as were gobs of other girls like me. When Amanda and Sarek were introduced, I sort of adopted them as my celestial parents, especially Amanda. In fact, I used the penname Amanda Wyatt for many years…I only ever published poetry under that name, but I took it because of Amanda and indirectly, Jane Wyatt.
So, here is a toast to Jane Wyatt…(Saurian brandy, of course).
Blessed journey to you, Jane. I will remember your tenderness, strength and grace.
