… I write this with tears rolling down my face as I share with you all the very sad news that Derek Aston – a long time and much loved friend has passed away. The obit says: On Saturday, October 17, 2009, peacefully at his home in Thornton, Derek aged 77 years. The beloved husband of Doreen and loving father of Paul. He will be sadly missed by all his family and friends.
Derek was in my life nearly everyday when I was a child / teenager - since I was 2 years old and there whilst I was growing up. He was always gentle, kind and considerate. He used to pick me and Paul up from school with a big smile on his face and out of the blue take us on wonderful ‘trips’ to the Lakes, Fleetwood, the beach, Stanley Park and the Tower.
One of my favourite memories of us going conkering in Singleton woods and coming home with pockets bulging. Even if the trip was just to come home from school he made it an adventure somehow – although there was that time we ran over a chicken on Poolfoot Lane …. but I’ll save that tale for another time.
It was only a couple of days before he passed that we were chatting on the internet – as was our habit. Derek filled our lives with fun, love and laughter. His jokes, loving messages, news updates and photos rolled in nearly everyday. Gosh – what a gap his passing has left in this household. We all thank God for him.
I would like to share with you the last photos he sent to me after his trip to Bath (the Cranford TV Set) and one taken in the summer of him and Doreen. I’m sure no one will mind. You will also find him in a previous posting on this link.
Thanks Derek – we all loved you to bits

PS Please feel free to send in your lovely memories of Derek and I will publish them as soon as I can. Thanks xx
