On June 11, actor, DeForest Kelley, known the world over as Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy on Star Trek, passed away from cancer. I had the pleasure of meeting him once at a book signing in Dallas back when "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" had been released. One night I had a dream that I was in my old neighborhood in Dallas, walking down Douglas Avenue towards the street I lived on when I looked up and saw DeForest Kelley in his medical uniform standing about 50 yards away from me.
He was smiling and waving as if to say goodbye. I woke myself up saying, "Goodbye, Bones."
It gave me a good feeling that he came by to tell me goodbye on his way to the Other Side.
