I failed to mention the why's of my choices:

Robert Burns--well, we need not elaborate.

Sir Walter Scott--I find him to be an incredibly complex person, and I would love to hear his version of the writing of the novels, George's visit to Scotland, his views for vanishing Scotland, etc. And I like his books.

C. S. Lewis--another complex man and a great thinker. Unlike most folks, his A Grief Observed is one of my favorites and quite a deep bit of writing.

But as I reflect, I think I might drop Scott and add my own grandfather, Albert Lee Killman who died about 12 years before I was born. Tales told about him indicate that he was a bona fide character who was well worth knowing.
