Yeah.
I last saw him on ST Voyager.
It was actually a Tweet from a Voyager actor that I read the news on.
He played a Vulcan admiral in The Next Generation episode, "Conspiracy" first.
He was best known for his role as Monolito Montoya in the 1960s Western show, "The High Chaparral." He was a naturally-funny, high-charisma kind of guy - the kind of person people at a bar would gravitate to. I liked him in his mentor role as Chakotay's father in Voyager.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

No clue, I've looked but there is only speculation. College snitch seems to come up the most often.
