He was one of the first people to welcome me when I stumbled onto Mobileread. I will miss him.

Very sad. I found Derek to be a gentleman who routinely contributed intelligent and informative posts. I'll miss him.

So sad news. My condolences to his family and friends. He had strong, but interesting opinions. I always enjoyed his reading his posts.

This is too, too sad and I, too, am in shock. I will miss his insights very much (thought I had been seeing fewer posts by him lately and was sort of semi-consciously missing him).
My sympathies are most certainly with his friends and family and if I were a prayerful person those also. d |

I'm no longer an active member on the forum, but was forwarded this news and just wanted to express my sorrow at learning of Derek's passing. He was one of my favorite people on the forum. My thoughts go out to his mother and friends.

This is sad news. I haven't been here in quite a while, but I remember Derek as being a welcoming, friendly presence. He'll be missed.
