I liked Kinch . . . . he brought calm and dignity to a fun and silly show.
Rest in peace, Mr. Dixon, and thank you for so many delightful memories.
Thoughts and prayers are with your family and loved ones.

Evidently one of his keys to longevity was keeping his distance from Bob Crane off the set, if you know what I mean.

That show was part of my childhood, and it’s still a well-loved, light-hearted part of our cultural legacy. And it portrayed something in our national character that we ought to hold on to: A group of jaunty, can-do American guys in the hands of the enemy, but still able to outwit them at every turn through sheer cool, guts and bravado. Okay, it was an absurdist comedy, not great art, but still not a bad image for us to reflect on in tough times. Thanks for the laughs and the inspiration, Mr. Dixon—rest in peace, and deepest condolences to your family.

Sorry to hear this. What a great career - he directed some of the best episodes of “Magnum, P.I.”

Other than Hogan's Heros, the only thing I ever saw him in (as an actor) was an episode of the Twilight Zone, where he played a boxer.
