I only met Derek once, a few years ago at a show, Japfest i think it was, he came across as a very warm and enthusiastic chap, a sad loss for the club and will be greatly missed.
My condolences to the family.
Hi Nathan.........
I was gutted when I heard & I am still gutted. I met him regularly at his Police shows & also saw him a week before & spoke to him a day or so before.....He was with a nurse so i said I'd call back. Your dad was & still is to me a lovely man....who contributed to this club & also to life. He had a terrific sense of humour & yet was quite soft spoken. I have great memories of moments together....at Dereks meets in notts, Z club Billing, etc etc etc.
DEREK SULLEY -A FINE MAN & GENTLEMAN......... Who will truly be missed.
I told him I love him........................! I'm glad I did ( I'm not gay) but I say it....because Life is far too short...........................
Derek would want everyone to be cheerful & I'll see you folks at his funeral.
condolances To Nathan/matthew & Sulley family P,s Nathan if you need any help get in touch
Sorry to hear about Derek, he was always suggesting to me that I should get another ZX!
Condolences to his family;I know how you feel as I lost my father suddenly this summer too!
Regards
Jez
This is a good link to Derek's life and I think a great media through which memories can be posted and read. There are always things we don't know about someone until they die.
