Dilwyn JohnROGERSM.B.E. March 13th, 2015. Died peacefully after a long illness, aged 72 years. Dilwyn had spent most of his teaching career on the Wirral, firstly at Eastham Secondary School and then at Wirral High School, where he was head of House and Senior Teacher.

Hundreds of his students achieved Gold Award in the D.O.E. and in 2004 he was rewarded for his commitment to his students when he received the M.B.E. from Her Majesty the Queen. Dilwyn never married but had many friends around the world, many of them dating back to his time in B.F.P.O. Schools in Germany in the late '60s. He will be very much missed by his family and friends. Funeral Service and Committal to be held at Hollinwood Crematorium, Roman Road, Oldham, OL8 3LU at 2.30 p.m. on Thursday March 26th.
