thanks so much for writing. It’s great to connect with others who have also been touched by Roger’s amazing tapes.

And I also hope that they will become available in digital form soon (and yes, I too have a digital version — a friend of mine made it for me so I could listen to him on my iPod — I wore out several sets of cassette tapes! They’re as timely as ever, and the way things are going, we really need his message!

Thanks again, and ll best,

Elisabeth

While I’m shocked to hear of his death, I’m grateful that it was a peaceful passing. I would expect no less from such a fantastic human being.

I’ve felt guilty all these years handing copies of the digital audio I made to friends and family that I felt would benefit from Roger’s words, but I had trouble locating anywhere to send people to pay for it. I wish they would release something on iTunes! Maybe I can write to Catherine Mellott and see what she thinks.

Thank you for providing this information. It is so sad to learn this news, but at least now I have some answers on whatever happened to Roger Mellott.

My deepest sympathies for the loss of your husband. I, too, have had such a pleasure of listening to Roger’s tapes years ago. They made such a lasting impression and I remember so much of what was said. I loved his sense of humor and could relate tremendously to what he was saying.

I just came across this blog as I had for the last few days been thinking how great it would be to be able to listen to “Stress Management for Professionals” in the car.

I am so much looking forward to be able to purchase the tapes on Itunes.

Warm Regards,

Elfya

thanks for writing. Yes, those four tapes are pure magic! I have bought multiple copies of them over the years, to lend to friends and also as a back-up, in case a tape player eats them. I don’t think anything else I own has gotten this many listens as Roger’s Stress Skills for Turbulent Times.

Hopefully, they’ll get reissued in a digital format sometime soon…

All best,

Elisabeth

I wrote back privately but just realized I should have left a reply here as well. My apologies for the delay.

Thank you so much for writing and getting in touch. My deepest sympathies to you. Roger’s teachings have made a huge difference in my life, as you can see at least to some extent from my blog posts.

And I am grateful to be able to tell you that — since I never did get a chance to thank Roger himself for the difference he has made. But clearly he knew how valuable his teaching and his wisdom was to those who knew him and/or his teachings.

With gratitude,

Elisabeth

My deepest sympathies.

thanks so much for sending the obit (I had no idea he had 6 kids!).

And also the update on the NASA blog. I guess I must have missed the ending or gotten side-tracked somehow. I never found that bit about him dying in his sleep.

they are from different events. Actually, Stress Tips for Turbulent Times is hugely more fun and entertaining than the other one. If you have a chance to grab a copy, get it. You will love it, I can pretty much guarantee it.

It was a live workshop he did for women only, and he was just on a roll. I have listened to that program DOZENS of times and I’m still not tired of it.

In comparison, the regular Stress Management for Professionals is almost boring, though of course it has all the great info in it, plus Roger is great as always. Just in comparison with the Turbulent Times audio, it doesn’t even come close.

You can usually find a copy of it on Amazon.com

I also was lucky enough to nab a copy of one of his videos — the courage to see clearly — which is great too.

Somewhere (I cannot remember where) he said that there was one program he did (that was recorded) where he didn’t think he did it all that well (i.e., not as polished) and yet it turned out to be his most popular program ever. I would bet almost anything that he was talking about the Turbulent Times audio.

Thanks again for writing, and let me know what you think of the audio if you can find it.

I located the NASA blog, and toward the end it was written that Roger had died in his sleep.

Thanks again for the post.
