Condolence: Cousin Cathleen & Family,
I am numbed by this tragic news. I had just spoken to him on the phone on Thursday. In that conversation, at top of mind, was his new (and his first) grandson, just over a week young. Always smiling and never rocked by life's many challenges, Derek's manner could best be described as calm determination. He will be missed by all who were fortunate enough to know him. I was one of those lucky ones.

Our deepest condolences in the loss of your beloved husband, father and grandfather. We will always remember Derek's big smile, kindness and generosity in support of my brother and nephews during their sudden loss two years ago. Derek had such a huge contagious smile and we always immensely enjoyed our conversations with him. We are thinking of all of you at this very sad time.
God Bless!

Condolence: Dear Cathy, Micheal and Emily,
My heart goes out to you. Even though we have a clear picture of Heavenly Father's plan it is still hard to lose a loved one. Hold tight to the memories, they will bring you comfort and help get you through.
Derek was one of the first people I met from the church when we moved to Newmarket. He was a great bishop, always kind and friendly.
So sorry that we are unable to be there as we are away but we send comfort hugs. Much love, Linda Dan and Leia
