For a man who spent most of his life hating the "Spock" character isn't ironic to see nearly every announcement of his death sporting a Star Trek costume.

All of the original Star Trek characters lamented the low budget and the rushed editing of the original show, and especially, later on, being so closely identified with a one character that they had trouble finding other jobs in acting. Shatner felt exactly the same way. In fact, almost every actor feels the same way; They resent being typecast, but they will always be typecast-especially when they make a character that is so memorable.
His family and friends will lament his life in their own way. His fans can and will lament the death of the actor and his most memorable roles. His last message ended in "LLAP." Live long and prosper. He was reconciled to his most memorable character.
