Phil Rogers 1951-2020

On December 22nd 2020 I heard the very sad news that Phil Rogers had passed away peacefully at home, cut down before his time by a aggressive brain tumour.

I had known Phil for 20 years, he was a good friend and a great potter, well loved by the studio pottery community, he will be greatly missed.

I send my sympathies to his family and friends, especially his partner Hajeong and young son Ethan.
