So sorry to read of Roger´s passing - he certainly was a character who brought his humour, kindness and generosity to everything he did. Wish I´d been able to make it to Lottin Point - I´m sure he would´ve been a wonderful host

So very sorry to learn of Roger's passing. It sounded like he had found a special place at lottin point. We miss his chats over the fence and rich laughter. He took great care of Lawrie and Joy in their later years. Neighbours for over 30 years

Extremely sad to hear of Roger´s passing! We had the absolute pleasure of staying at Lottin Point Motel, Hicks Bay in April this year, where Roger made us so welcome. What a bloke - intelligent, eccentric, many stories to tell of his travels and with such a warm heart. Our sincere condolences to his family.
