The obituary notice of Derek TEAL

So sad to lose our brother in-law. He was always a pleasant and kind person.

Gone but never forgotten….you leave a huge void in our lives. You really were one of a kind, I will cherish the tenderness and love you showed us all and the laughter and memories will last us a lifetime. Proud to have taken the name Teal in marriage and to have called you my father-in-law even though you were like a Dad to me and a best friend. You set a wonderful example of a man to your grandchildren The Teal Boys. Long may your legacy live on in them. Rest in Peace now and look after the garden in heaven whilst I continue your work here. We love you and miss you. Luana, Luca, Lorenzo and Leonardo xxxx

Grandad, You weren’t just my grandad, but my bet help, my partner in crime winding mum up, my favourite lunch date, and my chief bird spotter. But most importantly you were my best friend. I’ll miss you forever and I’ll love you always old man. Give nana a Holly hug :) and don’t have too much fun without me. Party hard 🫶🏻

Derek, there are no words that can express the loss we feel right now. The happiness from memories of our surrogate dad and granddad will last forever. Say hi to Carol, Clive & Jean. Rest easy sleep well. Xx
