Final Message to my Crew
Computer: post to all Voyager crewmembers in the event of my death.
If you are reading this, then I am gone. Obviously I don't know the circumstances of my death. I can only hope that it was quick and meaningful.
Please know that being your captain has been the greatest honor and privilege of my life. Of course captains always feel responsible for their crew and are concerned for their safety and well being, but what I feel for each one of you goes beyond that.
I stranded you here in the Delta Quadrant and demanded much of you and you rose to the occasion magnificently. We became a family rather than just a crew and I'm so proud of everything we've accomplished.
I wish I could have stayed with you, but I know that @firstofficerchakotay-flute will be an excellent captain and will lead you home just as I would have. It's all right to give him the respect he deserves as your new captain. It doesn't take away from what you felt for me. I hope you will support him as you did me.
Never forget my care and concern for each one of you.
