Derek was always there for me when we had great parties on Dorchester st. He was always my bouncer at the door and kept us safe! He always had something cheeky to say to me. Rest in peace Derek, if you see my partner, let him know who you are, my friend! - Posted by: Linda Leathers (friend) on: Sep 24, 2022
