He made Star Trek into iconic television. He’ll be missed, but his work will live on to entertain for many generations. “City” and “Amok Time” are Star Trek at its best.

My best to the family in this tough time.

Just watched The Original Star Trek episode “The City on the Edge of Forever” at cbs.com. For me, this is SciFi at its best and stands as one of the best episodes produced by that landmark series. It is a perfect balance of adventure, humor, wit and poignancy. It clearly demonstrates that, in the right hands, it doesn’t necessarily require 21st century special effects to tell a memorable story about the 23rd. Thank you Mr. Pevney for that unforgettable little gem and the many other stories you helmed. You’ve left behind a wonderful legacy for future generations to enjoy.

Sorry to hear about the passing of your Dad. I was a HS friend of Jeff (we played in a band together, fished in the waterways around your house and went to Catalina a few times on the Jo Mi). One of my memories of your Dad was on one trip to Catalina when we had engine trouble and had a rough time getting to the island. Your Dad had Jeff and I steer the boat while he tried to get the engine that had been damaged restarted to no avail. We called a mayday to the coast guard and their reply was to make it close enough to Avalon for the harbor master to help us get in. We did make it but I have to admit Jef and I were a little scared but your Dad was calm and strong and made sure we stayed on course (not easy with only one engine which made us keep heading off course). I learned to use a compass that day and we even got to fly back home on the seaplane afterwards. I also remember seeing all the pictures, posters and cast items from the movies at your house and never thinking you guys were anything other than normal average people…never a hint of who your Dad or Mom were…no ego at all…You had a special family and I’m glad I had the opportunity to know you guys. Hope Jeff is doing good.

So sorry to hear of the passing of your father. I am not sure if any of you would remember me, but I went to school & camp with Joel. Actually Joel was probably my first boyfriend. I lived near you in Encino. I would love to hear from Joel and know what he has been up to these last few decades.
Again may I say how sorry I feel about your loss, but may your Dads memory be great confort to all of you.
