Mein herzliches Beileid. Ein unglaublich toller Sänger den ich sehr sehr geschätzthabe. Und alle seine Lieder habe ich mir immer wieder angehört habe. Ein Toller Mann und Sänger leb wohl und Ruhe in Frieden.

I grew up listening to Mr. Whittaker’s music and had the great pleasure of seeing him perform live once in Concord, NH. I had the opportunity to meet him but unfortunately missed it and forever regret that. I’ve always enjoyed the music and found my favorite singing songs in the shower and in kareoke mostly from his collection of songs. His passing is truly the end of an era and her will be missed greatly.
Rest in peace, sir. Thank you for the wonderful music and memories it invokes in me.
Forever grateful,
Bob Gilmore

Great singer with such a beautiful voice so sad to hear of his passing. I have so many great memories growing up in the 1970s listening to his songs,The last farewell is a particular favourite, which I often listen to on youtube. RIP Mr Whittiker.

One of a kind. Master whistler. I loved it when he said everyone is carrying an instrument they can learn to play anywhere. For years I tried to play Elizabethian Serenade, but could not master the high notes he reached. His music will live on!!

A magical velvety voice. Luckily he has left a catalogue of classic songs which will keep his memory alive.

As I child I grew up with Roger's music. My parents would play his music in (what seemed like) endless car rides. His soothing voice and the beautiful melodies made every journey quite enjoyable.
I offer my deepest sympathy to Roger's loved ones. He will be greatly missed!

Veldig trist at selveste Roger Whittaker er gått bort. Han var bare en sjelden og fantastisk musiker - som står meget høyt - og som aldri vil bli glemt.
Som en som har elsket hans musikk fra den spede begynnelsen til dags dato - til flotte danselåter og nyyydelige låter til å bare lene seg tilbake å lytte til.🎸🎶🎵🔊❤️
Hans bortgang vil nå bety å spille mye god musikk i reprise framover - og minnes gode opplevelser fra yngre dager.(Nå er jeg 71 år...)
Takk for all flott musikk - som har fulgt meg, familie og venner i alle årene. Vanskelig å beskrive tanker og følelser nå......men.........Hvil i fred, Roger.🙏❤️🇧🇻
Kondolerer til familien.💜🕯️🌹

In the early 1990,s my family received a Signed Photo and message from Roger which really helped our son Cris and us (his Mom and Dad) through a very traumatic time.
Cris who was nine years old at the time had been diagnosed with leukaemia and was about to have a Bone Marrow transplant when we received this photo out of the blue. Someone must have contacted Roger and told him of Cris’s illness and of course his liking of Rogers music, he was always playing it.
Cris had the BMT at the Birmingham Children Hospital for which he had to stay in an isolation ward in the transplant unit for several weeks. Because of the length of the stay and the seriousness of the procedure he was allowed to take in what he wanted which included a CD player and of course a Roger Whittaker CD.
He or we used to play this CD daily during his stay, so much so Cris new the words of the songs off by heart.
Cris was very ill and we were close to losing him at one point waiting for the new marrow to take and grow. But grow it did and one day while having a shower he started singing Leaving On A Jet Plane at the top of his voice. We knew then he was feeling better.
So thank you Roger, God Bless and Rest in Peace
