My father sadly passed away on the 26 September 2009 having fought a long and hard battle with Cancer of the throat.
He was cremated in Portugal and his ashes remain there. A celebration of his life was held at the Parque da Floresta Golf Club on the 1st November, where many friends from the Algarve and the UK gathered to support Pamela his wife and to reflect on their happy memories. Michael Brown and Maurice Hurst read eulogies of Derek as well as Pamela who did not leave a dry eye in the house.
I am organising a memorial service in the UK at Christ Church in Gravesend at 11:00 hrs on the 12 December 2009 and all who remeber Derek and would like to attend are most welcome.
