Dear Maureen and family,

We are so sorry to hear of Derek passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

May you rest in peace. I will for ever miss you. Love you always buddy.

🙏

Sending hugs Maureen and Dean ❤️❤️

I am so sorry to hear of Derek’s passing. My condolences. This is a beautiful tribute. Thinking of you all sending you love ❤️

Derek was a great guy.  He was hard working, outgoing, funny, and he had a good entrepreneur mindset.  It was nice to see him always helping his friends and family whenever they needed.   My fondest memories are just chilling, listening to music, and watching Shark Tank/Dragons Den with him and others. ❤️

Maureen and Dean, I am shocked and saddened to hear of Derek’s passing. I was moved by your beautiful tribute. Sending hugs and prayers to you and your family. Please know I am always here for you..

Derek, I will forever remember you as a young teen with the long blond curly hair and a smile that took up most of your face. We spent many moments talking about Matt and through that we shared a bond of care and concern. You were very special to Brooke and Kris and they to you. I know that Jarrid will forever treasure the many hours of fishing and video gaming. You were very special nephew and very loved. Rest easy nephew

Maureen, sending hugs and prayers to you and your extended families. May the good memories support you during the sad times.

We’ve been thinking about you over these past weeks.. I only knew your boys through pictures and FB glimpses but what I know for sure is how deeply loved both were.

My memory of Diggy goes way back to him and Ainsley playing side by side on a blanket while we were both on mat leave.

My sympathies to the Forsyth family.  My thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

No one knows why these kinds of losses happen. This family has endured so many & I have to admit it'd be enough to shake my faith. Supposedly there's a reason for everything. We won't know all the answers until we are with our loved ones again, but for now we have to believe that Derek is at peace & free of all that was weighing him down here on earth.

Love & light to my cousin Maureen & the family. ❤️

RIP Diggy ❤️

My son was friends with Derek in childhood attending the same school.  He was a delight to have around. He often came to the family farm with us.   I am so sorry for your loss.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. My condolences to your family. May he rest in paradise.

Maureen, this is such beautiful memories of Derek. Every time we spoke he was so kind and loving. You were, and are a fantastic example of this in your boys. I am so sorry for your heartaches. We love you so much and are always there for you! xo

Oh Maureen, I am so sorry to hear about your beautiful son - whose spirt shines forth in the beautiful photos of this video. Sending love & prayers to you & Dean

Beautiful tribute. Deepest condolences to you, Dean and your family. Sending hugs.

Diggy was a great guy.  Always friendly and happy to see you!  Had great fun taking my sons to watch Derek s hockey games, fun times in Birds Hill Park,  and family gatherings.  Have thought of Matt often and now will see both their smiles in my memory.   Love you Mo and thinking of you.

Maureen there are no words you have been through so much in the last few years and have dealt with it with such strength and dignity. Your boys are together now and they are celebrating you from up above. Love you my friend.

Derek: My Great-Nephew:  Always so kind, so polite & respectful. The love he had for his Mother Maureen was so very evident. I didn't get to visit with Derek much but when I did, it was always pleasant and I walked away knowing he wanted to do better & do good in his life. Maureen: You have our Love & Prayers always.

Rest In Peace Derek. Hug all our loved ones for us.

Our condolence to you and Dean. Diggy was such a kind and caring person. My heart aches for you both. This is such a terrible loss and we are very saddened by his passing. We had many wonderful times with you and the boys that I will always cherish.

Such a beautiful tribute for an incredible young man. Our heart is breaking for you. Sending much love, strength, and condolences to Maureen and the whole family.

What a wonderful tribute to Derek.   Maureen & Dean our heart aches for you to have been through so much pain and tragedy.  .For those that we truly treasure, the heart never forgets. May all your memories help you through this difficult time.  We are here if you need us.

I’m absolutely broken by this news, Maureen, I spent many an evening out back with Diggy chatting about anything and everything, and did the same with Matt during the years we were neighbours. Your lads hold a very special place in my heart. May they both rest in peace, and may you find comfort knowing that you had two amazing young lads who taught us about friendship while dealing with their own adversities. Sending you our love.

Our hearts ache for you Maureen and Dean, and pray that knowing he is at peace with the family members who have gone before him will comfort you. He was loved and will be missed.❤️

Our condolences Maureen to you and Dean. You will be so missed Derek. Aunty Viki and Uncle Henry love you so much♥️

Big hugs filled with our love ♥️
