My deepest sympathy to all the Whittaker family on the passing of Roger an absolute gentleman who I had the pleasure of talking to over the years may you rest in peace
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.
R.I.P Roger. Your music will never die. Thank you. My condolences to your family.
I had the privilege of seeing him in concert twice in Clearwater, Florida. Will forever be in my memories. RIP Roger.
Having loved Roger Whittaker's music since I was a young lad in the 1960s and seeing him in concert in the 1970s, the news of his death causes much sadness. There is noone like him and he can never be replaced. May Roger Whittaker rest in peace and his family find solace in what he gave them and the rest of us.
I grew up listening to Roger’s wonderful voice and music.
Thank you for the music!
Legend is an understatement. Roger's music was the soundtrack to much of my life from the classics from the '70's and '80's to his lesser known RCA recordings of the late '80's early '90's ,every one of them was heartfelt ,meaningful and sung with that exceptional ,honeyed baritone voice ,the way he interacted and held the audience in the palm of his hand was absolutely inspirational at his live concerts. A truly great entertainer who shall be sorely missed and remembered forever! Bless you Roger and thank you for the music!
So sorry to hear the news. I've always loved his music -- the variety he performed and that soothing voice. I was lucky enough to see him in concert a few times.
Kwaheri mzee; Roger was also at Prince of Wales School, Nairobi Kenya. Always loved never forgotten, his incredible whistling ability unparalleled and his songs delightful to us especially those Kenya related.
So many of my Kenyan expat friends remember Roger too. Safari njema rafiki
Sat and had a drink backstage with Roger in the 70s in Münster. What a lovely gentleman. RIP Roger. Sympathies to his family.
Dearest Roger…
I am deeply saddened to hear of your passing. You will be remembered with so much love and kindness and during my childhood years my home was filled with your beautiful music.
God bless you dear… rest easy now and sing heavenly once more with the angels.

Another book of history closes. For those of us who grew up with you in Kenya, we are so proud to have known you. Your music follows us always. Regardless of where I live, I always have a CD in my car - makes me feel close to home to hear your amazing voice. Rest in eternal peace. Warm virtual hugs to your family at this unbearably sad time.
Thank you for everything you gave of yourself.
Your music will forever be with me and I have LP's on the record shelf so you will never be forgotten.
Now you can whistle on for those who are in your place in the world.
RIP. Ein wundervoller Mann.
Poleni sana for this loss. May he rest in eternal peace.
His song "my land is Kenya" would be played on radio by my father during our road trips through the countryside when we were growing up.
Goodbye Roger and thank you for all the music over the years. Safari njema.
