Michael Patrick Derry

April 13, 1944 - October 30, 2024

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Michael Patrick Derry on October 30, 2024, at home, surrounded by his loving family, following a courageous battle with cancer. Beloved husband to Linda Margaret Derry (née Gough) and dear father of Mark John (deceased), Michael Paul (Elana), and Julie Anne Brown (Jamie). He was a proud grandfather to Jackson, Brooklyn, Kyle, and Rebecca, who were the light of his life. Michael will be missed by his siblings Lynda, Darlene, Patricia, and Joanne, and remembered fondly by his many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Born and raised in Toronto, Michael graduated from the University of Toronto with a degree in electrical engineering and built a successful career with Ontario Hydro, Hydro One, and later through his own consulting company. Known as the family 'fixer,' he had a special talent for finding creative solutions to any problem. Michael cherished family gatherings, loved to travel, and shared a love of music and Elvis Presley with his mother, Mary, who joined him on a memorable visit to Graceland.

The family expresses heartfelt gratitude to the Durham Regional Cancer Centre, Dr. Zalewski, and the clergy at All Saints Anglican Church for their support during this time.

A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, November 23, 2024, at 2:00 PM at All Saints Anglican Church, 300 Dundas St. West, Whitby, Ontario, with a reception to follow. Donations in Michael’s memory may be made to All Saints Anglican Church.
