William Shatner, who played Captain Kirk alongside Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock in 'Star Trek', paid tribute to the late actor and said that he loved the late 83-year-old actor like a brother.
The Canadian actor took to Twitter to pay his tribute and said that they will all miss Nimoy's humor, his talent, and his capacity to love, the Mirror reported.
According to one website,, Shatner also added that actor's death was so upsetting, but also really lovely to see how loved Nimoy was and will continue to be.
Shatner also shared a photograph of the two on the website Who Say and fans were quick to comment on the post.
Nimoy died at his home in the Bel Air section of Los Angeles, after being rushed to hospital after suffering from severe chest pain last week.
