Good morning everyone, It's a damp foggy day here. I seem to be oversleeping lately! just out of my bed now.

You obviously haven't read the sad news Ian?

Just popped in to say a sad farewell to Derek.

What a great pleasure it has to have known Derek and enjoyed his company on here and at large.

RIP Sir, you have (and always will be) very much loved.

Just looking in hoping to see my dear friend Derek,we have enjoyed several virtual breakfasts over the past years including his famous Marmite on Toast,"with thick Anchor Butter he would say"

Derek was one of a kind,I am so proud to have met him and been part of his Rover family.

Sleep peacefully Derek my friend,free from pain

RIP

Lonely days are long
Twilight sings a song
All the happiness that used to be

Soon my eyes will close
Soon I'll find repose
And in dreams, you're always near to me

I'll see you in my dreams
And then I'll hold you in my dreams

Sorry. I ran out of thanks.

Steve, sometimes words fail me as well. It doesn’t mean that we do not care any less. The forum has done itself proud in paying so many messages and tributes in remembering Derek. He would want us, not to be miserable and sad, he would want us to celebrate his life and to stick by Lilian. God bless them both.
