Ah, Ted Cassidy (d. 1979) — known best as Lurch (Addams Family,) but also as Ruk the Android (Star Trek) and a whole slew of animated voice-overs (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0144252/). Thanks, sir, for your marvelous voice and talents to match.

It's worth noting that Cassidy had three roles on TOS — Ruk, the voice of the puppet Balok, and the voice of the Gorn. But Ruk gave him some great screen time and great lines.
That is Tom Shady!!
