WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN ROGER WHITTAKER'S 88TH BIRTHDAY TODAY 22ND OF MARCH. HE IS GOING TO BE SO VERY MUCH MISSED IN THE WORLD OF ENTERTAINMENT AND I WOULD LIKE TO WISH HIM A HAPPY HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY AND I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE MET HIM AGAIN.
MY VERY BEST WISHES AND REGARDS TO ALL HIS FAMILY AND HIS WIFE NATALIE, HOPE SHE IS DOING WELL.
Mom bought me With Love when I was 8. What a beautiful voice! Warm and kind and strong. It felt like the embrace of good friend. And of all the bazillion Xmas songs in the world, Ding Dong Merrily on High is my all time favorite. Thank you Roger.
My heart broke the day I heard of Rogers passing..I saw him 13 times in concert..my all time favorite singer..Rest in peace in my friend.....the world will not be the same without your voice and whistles!! Love you forever!!
My wife and I were married in 1986 and both loved Roger’s music. One of his songs, no longer in production, was our wedding song
I reached out to his staff several years ago and told them the story and they sent a copy of the song. That was above and beyond and we will always remember that along with his wonderful collection of music. We have his music on now as I write this
Unfortunately, my computer crashed a few years ago and the song was lost again. I would love to have the opportunity to get a copy again. The song starts with, “touching you with my heart ……..” “hold me close”. It’s been 39 years and can’t remember the lyrics. I just remember it is a beautiful song.
God rest your soul Roger, you brought a lot of joy to this couple and I am sure to many many more. I hope you are singing in Heaven now.
So sorry to hear about Roger passing.
My Dad and I loved his music and, thanks to Mr Whittaker, I have some great memories of listening to his music with my Dad.
We live out from Atlanta Georgia and we Never missed a concert of Rogers here at home or other surrounding areas & we always took our son from a totler on up and while conversing with Roger after his Performance "He always remembered our Sons name 'Alton'. Just learned today of Rogers passing and am saddened to hear this. He brought so much Happiness to all his fans with his Wonderful concerts. Got to meet Natalie at 1 of Rogers Concerts in Atlanta Ga. and she like Roger is A Wonderful & Friendly person.. Thank God For Mr. Whittaker. We Loved Him Very Much.
Roger is living proof that we all have a soul.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I grew up listening to his music because my mom would put his albums on. I am 56 now and was like "I wonder if he is still touring?" Sadly I ran across your message of his passing. He will be missed.
hi i thank that i should make a tribute video for his family
From being a young child of 5-6, my parents used to play Roger's music on the car when we were travelling any distance. Almost 50 years on, and his songs are now in my playlists on Deezer than tapes, but I still listen with fondness at enjoy the memories I have when I hear them. Thank you for your music and may you rest in peace. My condolences to Rogers family.
Thank you Mr. Whittaker for your gift from your heart, and how you blessed my soul many times over.
I'm looking thru the streaming channel, Tubi tonight and I see a Roger Whittaker concert among its listings... I decide to do some research on Roger while I listen to the music... I truly didn't know he had passed away this past September until I was looking at his entry on wikipedia today. I first discovered The Last Farewell in the 80s on a AC radio station... The station played a few of his songs regularly... I eventually got some of his CDs and still play them in my own regular rotation.
My heart goes out to Roger's family and friends in mourning his passing.
Thank-you Roger for giving all of us A New World in the Morning!

A true entertainer and legend. RIP
I am so terribly sad to hear this. He was my favorite singer. His voice still lives on in his recorded music.

So sorry to hear of his passing. I had the privilege of attending two of his concerts. I also have his recording of his trip to Africa. He was such an incredible person.
My heart goes out to Roger's loved ones and my sincerest prayers for peace and happiness. Mr. Roger Whittaker brought me such joy and peace in my childhood and throughout all of my life. He is one of the people to paraphrase one of his songs that I can thank the good Lord that I found and was surrounded by. In times of hardship or fear and times of celebration his whistling and gorgeous voice was such a comfort. Thank you sir for sharing your gifts with the world and me.
Since I was 14 in the 70s I have been blessed by Rogers music.
Rest in Peace dear friend.
SAFARI!
My grandmother LOVED him! She'd listen to his albums over and over. Good memories.
Natalie and family, my deepest sympathies to all of you. I became a fan of Roger's music in the early 1980's. Over the years I was blessed to see Roger in concert 14 times (all over Michigan). I always had an amazing time talking to his crew and to Roger himself after many of his concerts. He was so kind to take the time to meet his fans and to sign autographs. He will be missed.
My all-time singer & artist. A lovely man, whose lovely character shines through his songs & music. Truly Treasured. I hope the present time of grief for the family & fans will, in time, give way to vivid happy memories. In the meantime two of his songs come to mind & perhaps speak to the situation - ‘Brave & Strong’ & ‘Happy Everything’. Thoughts & prayers. Ken
