Tanooki | 4,930 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Most probably knew him as Odo on Star Trek DS9, but did far plenty from TV (Benson), cartoons (Chef in Little Mermaid), and more. Died today at age 79. Now we're starting to lose the Trek people from the rebirth of the TV franchise in the 90s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD | 1,379 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I saw this earlier. First we lost DC Fontana and now Rene. Very sad news. He had metastatic lung cancer. I also learned that Marina Sirtis' husband died in his sleep. She posted about it today as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estil | 1,261 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Oh my Trekkie wife will be sad to hear that...though she's always been Next Generation first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch_8ngel | 1,597 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Saw him live, once, in a broadway production. Never realized he was the chef from Little Mermaid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoshi | 8 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 This hurts. I've been marathoning the Star Trek series on Netflix and finished DS9 a few weeks ago. Odo was a great character and you could sense his growth throughout the series. His back and fourth with Quark was always great. It still stings that we lost Nog (Aron Eisenberg) and DC Fontana earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
