Rabbi John L. Rosove, who is also the first cousin to Nimoy's wife, Susan, provided a eulogy in which he talked about the actor's love for his other half:
Leonard shared with me after he and Susan married 26 years ago that he had never met a woman like her, never had he loved anyone so dearly and passionately, that she’d saved his life and lifted him from darkness and unhappiness in ways he never thought possible. His love, appreciation, respect, and gratitude for her transformed him and enabled him to begin his life anew.
Rosove also told several stories of their time together, honored the star's contributions to his various communities, and recalled his visits to the Soviet Union in the 1980s and to Germany. "Kind-hearted, gentle, patient, refined, and keenly intelligent was he," Rosove said. (You can read the full eulogy
