Dr. Conrado Tan Derecho, age 79 of Cape Coral, Florida, surrounded by his family, went home to be with the Lord on December 12, 2017. He was born in the Philippines on October 10, 1938 to Constantino Derecho and Segunda Tan. He moved to New Jersey where he was an anesthesiologist and raised his family. After retiring to Florida, he resided in Cape Coral for the last 16 years.

He is survived by his wife, Toni and her 3 sons (William McKeon and wife Christine, Sean McKeon and wife Linda, and Brett McKeon and partner Victoria), and his daughters Joy and her husband Stephen Kelch, Grace and her husband Dennis Roberts, Lisa and her husband Jefferson Svengsouk, and Christina and her husband Anthony Miloro, whom he shared with his former spouse, Patricia Mazzei. He is also survived by his 16 grandchildren, Nish, Adam, Jacob, Jason, Liam, Luke, Jocelyn, Madeline, Samuel, Kaylin, Addison, Emily, Ethan, and Silverkate, Thorfinn, and Brynn.

He is predeceased by his siblings Constantino and Celso, and survived by his siblings Celia, Carlos, and Consuela, as well as many beloved nieces and nephews around the world.

Toni and family: Be comforted in the knowledge that the world is a better place because Conrad was in it. His influence, wisdom, and care touched many more people than any of us could possibly know. Rest well our friend, you will be remembered. A wise person once said - "It's not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived". He scattered well!

I can't believe we just spent a beautiful Thanksgiving with him; that will be memory we will all cherish. He was an exceptionally kind person and may be rest in peace. God Bless him and all of you.
Love Nancy & Vinnie Torre

When we think of you Conrad, we envision a kind,gentle, generous man who loved easily and unconditionally. In return you leave behind so many people who love you and will learn by your example how to live their lives in faith and love. Toni will be loved and cared for as you would want. May God bless you as He welcomes your arrival to heaven.

Uncle Totoy... You are gone too soon. You don't let your age get in the way of chasing your dreams and doing things you want to do, and most especially being with family and friends in the happiest of times and in the hardest of times. You've left behind a huge hole in our hearts and we will forever cherish the precious moments we had with you and because of you. Dad and Uncle Celso will be surprised to see you and will have to find a way to play chess with three players. We're all here with Auntie Toni so don't worry about her too much. Your legacy lives in each and everyone of us. We only hope to be able to carry and pass on the values that you've shown, much like my Dad before the Lord called him home. You have been truly blessed with God's grace and it shows with every soul that you've touched. We love you. We miss you already. A lot.
