It is with the greatest sadness that we announce the passing of Derek Anthony Downes. Derek sadly passed away on Friday 26th April 2024, at home with his family, aged 72.
Neighbours and friends who are not able to attend the service are most welcome to meet outside 5A Ferndale Road, Leytonstone to pay their respects to Derek before the hearse leaves at 2pm on Friday 24th May.
We would love for you to attend Derek's funeral if possible, your presence is all that is required.
Everyone is welcome to join Kathleen and family in the St John The Baptist Church Hall, Leytonstone, following the service from 4 - 6pm for light refreshments and to share memories.
