In loving memory of Derek William Keeler who sadly passed away on 18th December 2023
Derek served in the Territorial Army Royal Signals, and after moving from Rainham to Upchurch, he was well known for his long-standing involvement with Upchurch Church Lads and Girls Brigade during the 1970s, 80s and 90s.
When the Brigade finished, Derek continued to attend the Remembrance Sunday service wearing his uniform and throughout the years, he played the bugle and laid poppy crosses on the war graves after the the service.
Derek will be greatly missed by all who loved and knew him.
