Dr Robert McKeich (1923-2012)

A remarkable man a remarkable life

Dr Robert McKeich is one of the few non-indigenous men to hold the honour of being initiated into an aboriginal tribe. But then, he was a remarkable man, who had a genuine love and respect for the indigenous Australian people, a deep interest in their wellbeing, and was prepared to learn from the Aborigines, not only with his perceptive mind, but with his whole being.
