Rest in peace Roger Whitaker. I have always admired your music and singing ability, little alone your whistling ability.
Sad day.
I have been thinking and talking a lot about Roger lately. Sad to hear of his passing.
My condolences to his family.
Kudos to the webmaster for creating this informative website.
Kind regards

My heart is crushed! I am pretty sure I have every CD Roger ever sold! I saw him in concert in Grand Rapids, Michigan many years ago! He made me as happy as seeing Elvis in concert. RIP Roger. I just know I will see you in Heaven. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

There is sadness in my heart hearing the passing of such a wonderful man. I remember my first concert where there were seats unoccupied. When he came on stage he explained that we came to see him and not his back, that is why the seats were empty on both sides of the stage. I amassed albums, cassette tapes, and CDs of his wonderful music over the years and only missed one of his concerts that was in my area. There had been a snow storm and my wife was not comfortable driving on the streets. We made it up the following year by traveling to Canada to see him. May his family remember the happy memories, the millions of fans he gathered, and the lives he enriched with his songs. RIP Mr. Whittaker - you will be missed but not forgotten.

I have grown up loving his voice and have always said that he is one of the very few I truly could listen to all day, every day.
Now that I am 38, I wish I had had the chance to hear/see him live...
When we baptized our youngest son (3 years old now) we brought him into the church on Roger's rendition of Morning Has Broken.
You will always have my heart and though at this age it can't possibly have been a great surprise, it still really saddens me to think you are not among us anymore...

So sorry to hear this news. I had the pleasure of meeting Roger in several occasions , in Stoke, Bangor and Croydon. I had the pleasure to meet Natalie also in Croydon
around 1984.
I live in Basford just around the corner from where one of Rogers parents were born. Rogers music was fantastic and he was a great entertainer and a very nice person who will be greatly missed X

Rest in Peace Roger. I loved your TV programmes and your beautiful singing and guitar playing. You inspire me to play and sing myself though I could never whistle to your level. Thank you for the music.
