Derek had a heart attack on the 10th February 2008 , we thought that he was getting better, but sadly he had a fatal heart attack 10 days later.


Derek was my partner for the last 3 years. He was the most amazing person. He was so passionate about life, in everything that he did. He loved life so much, he was always on the go, wether it be in our personal life or at work, always hustle bustle, but you couldn't help but get carried along with whatever he was doing.

He made me so happy, I just have to think about him and I smile, although just now it is mixed with sadness. He gave me the most amazing 3 years, and I am so fortunate to have had the 3 years that I did with him. A lot of people never experience the love, passion, joy and fun that we had together and for that I will always be so grateful to him. I have the most fantastic memories of our life together.

I miss him so much and I know it isnt just my life and his families lives that have been affected by this. Everyone that met him was touched by him, because he was such a larger than life, vibrant character. He would have ran to the ends of the earth for anyone if he could have, and everyone that I have spoken to since has said similar things about him and that I feel is a tribute in itself.

I love him dearly and he will always have my heart.

Right now I'm in a different place
And though we seem apart
I'm closer than I ever was
... I'm there inside your heart

I'm with you when you greet each day
And while the sun shines bright
I'm there to share the sunsets, too
... I'm with you every night

I'm with you when the times are good
To share a laugh or two,
And if a tear should start to fall
... I'll still be there for you

And when that day arrives
That we no longer are apart,
I'll smile and hold you close to me
... Forever in my heart

love always Derek,love mhairi xxxx

My Loving Partner

My arms still long to hold you
The way they did before,
To take your hand and keep you
At my side forever more.
To have one loving moment
Like the ones we used to share,
When I'd wake up from my dreams of you
And find you standing there.
Sleep on my dearest partner
You're in every memory,
My heart won't let you go
Because you meant the world to me.

Thank You

Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to the Charity Night we had in honour of Derek' memory.

We raised £2850.00 for the charity 'Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland'.

I am totally overwhelmed at everyone's generosity and Derek would have been so honoured.

Thank you again.

Love

I Wrote Your Name

I wrote your name in the sand,
but the waves washed it away.
I wrote your name on my hand,
but washed it the very next day.
I wrote your name on a bit of paper,
but accidently threw it away.
I wrote your name in my heart,
and forever it will stay.

Love Always

Until We\'re Together Again .....

I want you to keep me in your heart and in your mind
For I spend so many quiet moments on my own
thinking how much I miss you,
how hard it is to be apart and how wonderful it is
that you're always with me,
warm and cherished....
here in my heart

Love Always
