McLEAN, Derek. It is with great sadness that I say goodbye to our dear friend Derek McLean. I'm sure you are up there having a scotch or two with Dave. Although my heart is heavy, I can't help but smile when I think of all the fun, laughter and mischief we shared. Rest peacefully dear friend. Catherine Versalko-West
