<p>It is with sadness that I have to inform everyone that knew him that Derek passed away on the 10th of June 2016.</p>
<p>Derek was a former member of the York Club and has been with HOSMAC for about 4 or 5 years.</p>
<p>I did not know him extremely well, but found him to be a gentle giant, a true gentleman, a fantastic modeller and flyer always willing to help others.</p>
<p>Our condolences to his wife Bett and son Terry.</p>
<p>K Walder, Secretary</p>
