It was truly a privilege to now Derek. He was one of the nicest people I have ever met, with a wickedly dry sense of humour and beautiful manners, he was a gentle man in all senses of the word. One of a kind.

Our lives were enriched by meeting, and getting to know, Derek during our holidays in Cresswell. The times that I spent having a morning brew with him, on the bench overlooking the sea, were so special. Derek had forgotten more about life than I will ever know.

A man who stood like an oak tree through my childhood. Mr dance will always be remembered as one of the last greats men to walk this earth. I look forward to the day I can tell my child about the great fisherman that's lived at druridge bay
