I've been a big fan of Mike since I was 10 years old and i will turn 69 may 9th. Some times I get to catch the reruns on Me TV but my biological clock does make it difficult some times. My four favorite TV hero's to this day are Mike Connors, Vic Morrow, James Arness and Robert Conrad.

I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Connors in Mexico City, when he appeared on stage alone for a few days. I was a child, but always remember how tall and handsome he was, most important was his kindness to my father and I, as he agreed to give us a thirty minute interview. My dad gifted him with a silver lapel pin to remember Mexico, and I at 12 years could only say I.,I.. he heard my dad tell him how many young people loved him in the Tight Rope weekly series!
Pam, a lifelong fan!

Mannix was one of my inspirations. I bought a color tv with my paper route to watch him and The Man From UNCLE. God bless Mike Connors.

My husband and I watched Mannix all the time so much time has passed to even think that Mike was 91 years old. I believe that he was a good soul. He was a devoted to his family loyal to his wife, with true love, seem to be very kind and generous. I want you to get my condolences to his family his daughter, his granddaughter, his son-in-law, may God help you get through this sorrowful time just some trivia. My name is Mary lou and they were married in 1949 when I was born. God bless you.
