My mother LOVED your music, and was lucky enough to meet you back in the 80's or 90's (I can't remember which as I was young). My brothers and I grew up listening to your music, and after she met you, well, it was indeed magical for her. Thank you for being such a big part of our lives.
It was 1981 when I first heard Roger Whitaker sing and whistle. I immediately fell in love with his voice and music. I have treasured each song and album over the decades. Thank you Mr. Whitaker for living my heart and carrying me to wonderful places with your voice. God speed
I have treasured Roger's albums for decades, saw him in concert twice, and the second time, was fortunate enough to actually meet him. He was a great talent and an extraordinary human being. He leaves the world a better place for having made his mark on it, and he will be deeply missed by all those who loved his music. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family in their bereavement.
I remember the first time that I heard The Last Farewell. I was suffering from red measles and the beautiful song came on the radio.Such a beautiful song sung with a melodious voice. I was captivated. I had the honour of meeting Roger at Massey Hall in Toronto and also at Hamilton Place. I remember distinctly him playing a round of my then husband who was the Golf Course Superintendent at Hamilton Golf and Country Club in 1980.
My deepest condolences are sent to his wife and family.
He will be missed but we have his voice forever recorded.
Rest in Peace Roger and Thank you.
I have been fortunate enough to see him live once in my life and I think I put him on a platform. I wanted him to live forever. I knew this day would come eventually, but I hoped I would never know it. My heart is so sad. I hope to see him again when I get to Heaven.
I cannot listen to Mr. Whittaker's recording of White Christmas without dissolving into tears. Beautiful arrangements on all of his albums. A gifted man. How blessed we are that his music will always be wish us, even while he raises his voice in eternity. My condolences to his family and friends.
I was fortunate enough to meet Roger a couple of times. His mantra - "We should live without hate" - inspired me to be a better person. The world is a lesser place without him in it; his music made an indelible impact on me.
May Roger Whittaker always rest in eternal heavenly peace with all the Angels and Saints in heaven forever.
May Roger's widow and children receive comfort, solace, peace and strength from their family, friends and world-wide fans. Roger Whittaker was an excellent entertainer and country/folk singer who will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him.

Danke für deine Lieder und ganz viel Kraft für deine Familie r.i.p
Wonderful, forever beautiful music I listened for hours. I enjoyed his songs since the early 70s, pure and enjoyable songs. May he rest in peace in the arms of Jesus. Forever in our hearts dear Roger Whittaker.
Wonderful memories of such a rich voice! Our condolences to the family.
As soon as I heard The Last Farewell, I was instantly drawn to Roger. I've bought every album of his that I could find. I likely own at least 50. I had the pleasure of seeing him in concert at least 8 times, and met him backstage once. He seemed most genuine and easy going. Thank-you, Roger, for about 50 years of the best music one could ask for, and for years of enjoyment still to come. I hope that the memories we share in the guestbook provide his family some comfort in this time of sorrow.
What a wonderful voice and person. Had the privilege of seeing him in concert in Houston. He could make any song his own. My favorite was Newport Belle. May God embrace you, my friend. Peace and comfort to your family.
Loved his voice, and music. He will be missed. Sorry for your loss. May you rest in peace, Roger...
I’m so sad to hear of Roger’s passing. He was my favorite singer/entertainer. Every time he was within driving distance we’d go to his shows and take the kids. I own all of his CDs. My condolences to Natalie and the children. Rip Roger Whittaker! ❤️
