It is with great regret and sorrow that I have to announce the death of Ian Rosser. Ian died suddenly whilst at work on Wednesday 28th May. His wife Julie-Anne and his daughter Fiona-Ann were with him when he died.
The funeral will be at 1430hrs on Friday 27th June 2008 at St Mary's Church, Dover Castle, followed by a Cremation Ceremony for family and close friends
I remember Ian well and many NAAFI breaks spent chatting over a pie and a brew. He was a good man and my thoughts are with his family at this sad time.

Ian was one of the nicest guys i have ever meet in the army he had a good heart and was all ways their for anyone a great friend going to miss you Ian R.I.P mate
My sincere condolences go out to the family on Ian's sudden departure.
I am going to miss standing with him outside fiona's school, talking about the old days and questioning "why we ever left the jackets! and where our next job was going to be and for how long?".
He was one of the nicest, sincerest and honest blokes anyone could know and will be missed by all who knew him.
I only knew Ian for a very short time compared to some of you, but what I can tell you about Ian is that he was truly a wonderful man in every way.
As a fellow brummy it was always so nice to be greeted with a cheery smile, and an accent that very few southerners can get to grips with. His sense of humour, and compassion for others was second to none, and I shall miss him dreadfully, but his legacy will live on in his beautiful daughter Fiona-Ann.
My heartfelt sympathy goes out to both Julie-ann and Fiona-ann at this sad time, and to let you both know I am here if ever you need me.
IAN I REMEMBER YOU WELL AND AM SAD TO HEAR OF YOUR PASSING. YOU GO TO JOUIN ALL THE GREAT MEN THAT HAVE GONE BEFORE YOU. MY CONDOLENCES TO YOUR FAMALY YOUR LOSS IS OUR LOSS

RE: Death of Ex Cpl Ian Rosser 2RGJ & 3RGJ Post 1992
Uncle Ian (i can get away with calling you that now without you saying i'm not old enough) we did not get to see you very often but we never forgot you and your model aeroplanes and never will. Our condolenses go out to Julie, Fiona-anne and my mum and dad.
Ian, a true gent who will be sorely missed by all that knew him.
Just to express my sorrow at hearing about the death of Ian. I remember Ian and Julie-Ann from 2 RGJ days in Connaught Barracks (which also finds an untimely death for itself) when Ian worked with my late husband Colin Manning and Julie-Ann was a member of the Wives Club. We often met in the early days in Dover but I remember Julie-Ann ringing me to say they were moving. I have been trying to locate her with the tel.no. I was given but with no luck. My thoughts go out to Julie-Ann and Fiona-Ann (who was just a baby when I last met her!) but also many happy memories come to me of our 2RGJ days.
What a total shock, to hear about Ian. What a person Ian was, a person that would do anything for anyone, he always had a smile on his face no matter what.
He will be sadly missed, He will now muster with all the other chosen men that have fallen. My condolences go out to your family, RIP Ian and keep that smile on your face.
