He was quite the actor and very nice to look at
Great on HSB, but I think my all time personal favorite part that I've seen was on an episode of Kung Fu '73 -episode 'The Stone' where he played the Marshall. I keep playing that over and over just to see him in it. -

Unfortunately I don't think I've ever seen Kiel in anything besides Hill Street Blues (I'm only 20). But LaRue is probably my favourite character from the show, and eveb68n if you never saw anything else of his acting thats a fine legacy of work to have.

I knew him when he lived in Topanga Canyon and was struggling to make it as a successful actor - prior to Hill Street Blues. Kiel was a warm caring fun man. He did smoke three packs of cigarettes daily. His raspy voice was indicative of this. He loved his daughter very much and spoke of her often. I saw him years later at the Palm Desert mall, I was struggling with alcoholism and he reached out to me, I was not ready to hear his message. A true beautiful spirit, I will remember his warm smile and joy of life forever.
