I briefly got to know Derek this past summer as he shared his love for Italy and the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. My sincere sympathy for his family and friends.

It was with great sadness that we learnt of Derek's passing away. He was our guest here in Italy just last week and we were so happy to have met so special and beloved a guy. We spent the whole day in Pavia with him and our daughter Giulia, having fun and dinner together. We are close to your pain and we express our most heartfelt condolences to you and your family.
