Hi All,

It is with a very heavy heart that I must tell you the sad news that R.N.I's Roger kirk has passed away! Roger had been unwell for some time now, he appeared to be on the mend when he suddenly had a massive heart attack and sadly died just a short time ago.

Roger will be remembered for his deep voice, and his history of the pirates shows during his German service progs. Roger also hosted a show on the English International service both Friday and Saturdays nights.

Roger will be missed by all who knew him, he was a larger than life character both on, and off air, and an hard act to follow. R.N.I is a very sad place tonight to have been informed of this truly sad, sad news.

I would like to send my deepest sympathy on behalf of Radio Northsea International to all of his Family, and friends.

R.N.I will pay tribute to Roger on Sunday the 27th both on our English and German services, this date was Roger's birthday, and a great opportunity to both celebrate his life, and also show our respect to one of R.N.I's best Son's.

R.I.P Roger, I know where ever you are right now mate, those around you will be well entertained my dear friend.

Garry Stevens R.N.I
