Derry passed away peacefully on

January 14th, 2015 at Victoria General Hospital after a short illness, surrounded by family. Born in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, on March 28, 1935, she is predeceased by her parents, R.P. and Rhonda Derham. She will be sadly missed and forever loved by her family, neighbours and friends, and especially by her husband of 55 years, Frank and her sons Lindsay and Brett. Derry is remembered as a woman of tremendous energy, humour and fun. As an immigrant to Canada and resident of Sooke, she kept in touch with a wide range of friends all over the world, both in Canada and from her previous life in South Africa and Zimbabwe. Her family would like to thank her neighbours for their support and the care workers at Victoria General for taking such good care of Derry during her last days.

There won’t be a formal celebration of life, however friends and neighbours are welcome to contact Frank and visit.
