The Star Trek franchise is mourning the death of a significant contributor to its success. Recently, Voyager co-creator and prolific writer Jeri Taylor passed away at the age of 86. Taylor's fingerprints were all over The Next Generation era of the IP. Given Taylor's stint as showrunner for the Janeway-led show, it's no surprise Kate Mulgrew and some of her fellow co-stars paid tribute to her after her passing.
