Grace Lee Whitney who played Yeoman Janice Rand on TOS, an episode of Voyager, and in many of TOS movies passed away. She died 05/01/2015 of natural causes at the age of 85. :( I wanted to take this time to express my condolences to Ms. Whitney's family and friends.

    That's a shame. I liked her character. She had some problems in life, but at least had a long one.

    STO isn't canon, and neither are any of the books.

    ^ Memory Alpha.org is not canon. It's a open wiki with arbitrary rules. Only what can be cited from an episode is. ^

    She died in January and we're only now hearing about it?

    For the humour-impaired, yes I know US date format.
