Sandra and I still are reminded of Des, and usually the memory brings smiles to our faces and a chuckle to our hearts. He was irrepressible and loyal, dismissive of posers and an ally to real solid people. We miss him, but were fortunate to have him in our lives. Sandra and Joe Hunter

Time has passed but the impression which Des had on so many people will never pass nor fade. He was a staunch friend and a bright light in our lives. Sandra and I still enjoy recalling Des' antics and witticisms even after all these years. In short- he was very special - and we were fortunate to call him our friend! Sandra and Joe Hunter
