Sad News – Passing of Roger Harrison


Ex Nav Off/2nd Mate 1970’s/80’s Roger Harrison has passed away.
Unfortunately I can not attend his funeral.

Thanks to Roger Bancroft for the following message:-

Sorry to be the bearer of sad news, had a phone call from friend and executer of Roger Harrison telling me that Roger died last Monday, 16th September.

The funeral will be at 10.30 at Chanterlands Crematorium, Chanterlands Avenue, Hull on Wednesday, 2nd October.

The 4 LOF names he had were Ray Appleyard, myself, Tommy March and Dave Crieghton (not sure of the spelling) but anybody who knew Roger welcome.

I cant tell you very much such as age (early 70’s) or time with LOF. I sailed with him (and his wife Lynn who died some 11 years ago) on the Victore 1972/3.

The last time I saw him was at the funeral of Tommy March, but have had the odd word on the phone since then.
