Unfortunately, it looks like William Shatner will not be attending the funeral for his Star Trek co-star Leonard Nimoy.
On Saturday, Shatner tweeted that because of a previous commitment at a Red Cross charity event in Florida on Saturday night, he won’t be able to make it to Nimoy’s Sunday memorial in California.
I am currently in FL as I agreed to appear at the Red Cross Ball tonight. Leonard's funeral is tomorrow. I can't make it back in time.

I feel really awful. Here I am doing charity work and one of my dearest friends is being buried.

So maybe tomorrow we come together here and celebrate his life.

So let's spend some time tomorrow celebrating Leonard's life and remembering the man.
