With profound sadness and heavy hearts, we announce the untimely passing of Derrick, a cherished brother, son, cousin, friend, and huge Arsenal fan!

Derrick's sudden departure has left an indelible void in our lives, bringing not only a deep sense of loss but also an unexpected financial challenge as we strive to give him the farewell that he deserves.

He lived his life for the moments that brought people together, for the laughter shared over simple pleasures, and for the quiet times that spoke volumes of his love and loyalty. He found humor in the simplest things and stood as a beacon of support and love for his family and friends.

In this time of grief, we turn to our community for support in commemorating Derrick's life in a manner that truly reflects the incredible individual he was. The costs associated with funeral arrangements are daunting, particularly in the wake of such an unforeseen loss. To this end, we have established a GoFundMe campaign to alleviate the financial burden and ensure that Derrick's farewell is as remarkable as his life was.

We are deeply grateful for donations of any size, as each contribution will directly assist with Derrick's funeral expenses, allowing us to honour him in a way that truly represents the impactful life he led. We also understand and appreciate that not everyone may be in a position to donate; simply sharing this campaign in Derrick's memory would be an immense help and comfort to us.

From the depths of our hearts, we thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this profoundly difficult period. Your contributions, in any form, are a significant comfort to us as we navigate this sorrowful time and strive to celebrate Derrick in a manner he truly deserves.

Please enjoy the pictures we have put together of him below, should you have any photos or videos you would like to add to our slideshow for his funeral please join our group chat and also get any updates.
