From the March 14th Tweet by Ryan Joyce:
Sad to learn Paul Royter has passed. He was an amazing hypnotist, magician and mentor. He changed my life and I'm forever grateful. Rest in peace, Paul.

From the February 28th post "World-renowned Mandrake the Magician star of new exhibition at Surrey, B.C., museum" by CBC News:
Lon Mandrake has teamed up with Museum of Surrey staff to pay tribute to his famed father, who died in 1993, in a new exhibition that is open to the public until May 16.
Visitors will have the opportunity to see magical tools of the trade like Leon's decks of cards and magic wand, posters from performances, comics from that era and costumes belonging to Mandrake the Magician and his assistant, Lon's mom Velvet.
"My dad's philosophy of life was really interesting. It made for a very happy, very happy family," said Mandrake. "He always said, you know, magic could stimulate a sense of wonder about the world... that sense of excitement of the unknown leads you to find, you know, life more interesting."Read more and listen to Stephen Quinn speak with Lon Mandrake.
