Folksinger Stan Rogers already lives on in the hearts and headphones of Canadians, but his legacy is now being commemorated on a postage stamp, too. Rogers's widow, Ariel Rogers, said she believes he would be "pretty chuffed" to know he was being honoured with a stamp. The photo that was ultimately chosen shows Stan performing at the Calgary Folk Festival in the early 1980s. "It's a fabulous picture and it just shows Stan in full-tilt action on stage where he loved to be." Stan released just four albums before he died, but several others were released posthumously.
