R. Ogilvie Crombie

"Robert Ogilvie Crombie, or Roc, was a loving and gentle man, a wondrous storyteller, a musician, an actor, and an embodiment of the best of Scottish charm. He was the wise old man, the grandfatherly figure children adore, and the magician who guides heroes and heroines on their paths of accomplishment. He was a man of culture who had one foot in this world and one foot in the worlds of spirit and mystery. There was a great deal to admire about Roc. He was a self-taught mythologist, psychologist, historian and esotericist, though his early training had been in science. Though quiet and reserved, he was still a pleasure to be with. He had a delightful, even impish, sense of humour matched by a twinkle in his eyes that was rarely absent."
