Marriage

"Coon was also lucky enough to be reunited with the love of his life in time for them to spend his last years together."

Without any further explanation. You really can't leave the reader hanging like that.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.165.87.144 (talk) 21:35, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to Inside Star Trek, by Herbert F. Solow and Robert H. Justman, in the late-1960s Gene Coon became reaquainted with a woman from his younger days--they had been deeply in love, but married other people. Coon subsequently divorced his wife and married this old sweetheart. I'm not going to add this to the article as it really has nothing to do with his television writing career, which is the only thing he is really noted for. Hell, I think the sentence you quote from the article really should be removed, for that matter. Sir Rhosis (talk) 02:49, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
