Craig and Sharon Holmes..My sincere condolences to Derek’s family and loved ones during this difficult time.
I have many great memories from my years working for Derek at Derek Scully Holden. He was an incredible boss, a genuine character, and truly one of a kind. One memory I’ll always laugh about is him having me working on my 21st birthday — and funnily enough, I haven’t worked another birthday since.
Thank you for the memories, Derek.
