In memory
Thank you for shaping the memories of my childhood. Growing up in a house of love listening to my parents singing your songs together, and later as an adult myself singing to then myself. Thank you 😊
I just got this sad news in June 15, 2025.
I really going to miss him.
Thank you for making all the holliday road tripp a joyful journey when i was a child in the 1980-1990.
My cassettes and cd collection is my golden collection.
R.I.P from me and my mom who loved his songs to 😢❤️🥀
I miss one of the best. Thanks for all the great memories.
Thankyou Roger Whittaker for all the years I’ve been listening to your singing, your voice soothed away the troubles of the day, so sad to hear of your passing. Been listening to you since 1971 when I started sailing on ships, I was 22 then, am 75 now. R.I.P. Roger. Condolences to your family.
I'm very sorry for your loss, and for ours as well. I grew up listening to Roger Whittaker albums on my parents' record player; they'd both been fans since college, and I remember being completely blown away by his whistling. When my dad got a player that could convert records to .mp3 files he could burn to CD or listen to on his phone, his Roger Whittaker albums were the first ones he converted. Mr. Whittaker has touched a lot of lives, and his music's going to continue to do that for a very long time to come.
This man is an hero.Such a sweet soul.Wish l had known you in person.
When I was a kid fifty-plus years ago, I thought my dad was the best whistler in the whole world. But my dad always said nobody could whistle like Roger. He loved Roger’s music so much and I grew to as well. May God bless him and his family.
Roger was a wonderful person and the crowds adore him, here in USA. His talents far exceeded most of singing professionals of the 1970’s-1980’s and is to be commended for his great concerts of which I attended.
My Chinese wife recently brought home an album that she bought at a Goodwill store.....The Wind Beneath My Wings. She knew nothing of Roger Whittaker but was captivated by the look of kindness in his eyes and his honest smile. She listened to his beautiful voice singing "Too Beautiful to Cry" over and over again. I remembered him from 50 year old TV commercials touting how he "outsold the Beatles in England". A little online research gave us a glimpse into a truly blessed and wonderful life well lived! Cheers and God bless Roger Whittaker and his family.
I’m watching an old “ Wheeltappers & Shunters Club “ on TPTV and Roger is as marvellous as ever—Wonderful singer, story teller, Whistler, Musician etc -/miss him a lot —RIP ROGER , I’d love to have seen you live 😢
I First Heard Mr Roger Whittaker sing you are my Miracle in 1980 on the Radio and i was I was only 13 years old at the time and and the song has been my favorite ever since then I am now 57 years old and I listen to this song at least once a week I also love a lot more of his songs may God bless The Legend of Roger Whittaker and his family for sharing his music and life with us
Roger was my teacher in Nairobi PS from 1957- 1959, He was a cool teacher, but he loved music more than teaching, Roger would tell us of his trips to Addis Abba to play for Haile Selassie, the emperor of Ethiopia.
I next met him in the early / mid ‘90s here in Sacramento.
RIP Roger

My Dad loved Roger,our family left County Durham in 1966. I listened to his songs with my pops- so many memories. The Last Farewell my friend.
Just discovered Roger had died a few years back. Such a wonderful artist
What a beautiful singer /song writer
Abschied ist ein scharfes Schwert - wie wahr! Ruhe in Frieden Roger Whittaker.
To Roger Whitaker, a life well lived in song and story. You may have departed us, but your music will live on.
Saw Roger in 1990 at Millikin University and still have the flyer distributed that night. Still love to hear him sing on the LP vinyls I have. Beautiful person!
