In addition, I'd like to link you to the Young Widow Bulletin Board, an excellent, compassionate support forum for those who have lost their loved ones too soon. It might help to read the stories there from people who are going through similar trials and find solace in a community that's struggling too.

Rest in peace, Derek. You were one heck of a human being, who touched many people with your talent, efforts, patience and bravery. A sad day, but at least your suffering is now at an end. Thoughts to your family.

I remember that poncy hat you used to wear at UBC in the 80s. I remember the Neurotics cheering me on at the SunRun. I promise to use only one space between sentences.
