  • Derek sadden to hear your gone. I remember growing up with you and my brother Roger Calder. And being at the beach. Partying, you playing your guitar. Going for walks in the morning you introduced to all the locals. But we were really looking for a drink and we found them, every house we went to opened up their door and greeted you with a smile and said come on in my boy. So thank you for giving me one of the best summers 1990-91. Lee Bear and Steven Bear loved it too. Love you my friend and say hi to my dad, brothers and cousins Nana - Posted by: Penny Calder (Friends ) on: May 16, 2018
