How sad. I worked with Derrick for many years. I loved all the sick jokes that he would send me!

We will miss our dear friend Derrick. We met about 40 years ago in a Fish & Chip restaurant in Santa Monica. We overheard Derrick & Mary talking and found out we were from the same area in England. Since that day we have been friends. We were with them when they chose the lovely home they shared for so many years in 1000 Oaks. We live a distance away so didn't see each other often, but when we did get together it was one of those friendships that made it seem like yesterday. A very smart man Derrick, but with a tremendous sense of humour and we loved his jokes. We talked to him the night before his lung surgery and he said he just wanted to "get this over" and he seemed very strong. What a change in him after the surgery and it was so upsetting to see him in so much distress. We are just glad he is now at peace and resting. Plus Mary has been so incredible throughout this entire ordeal and we wish her all the very best as she makes a new way forward without her companion of 48 years. God bless you both and thank you Derrick for all the wonderful times we have had together and we plan on many more in the future with Mary.

Such sad news. The passing of another good soul from our Steadicam community. Derrick was a great man and a good friend. He will be missed.

My deepest condolences to the Whitehouse family, I met Derrick back in the early 1990's when I would come out to LA to do Steadicam work. He was a consummate gentleman and eventually a good friend.

So very sorry to hear of the death of my longtime friend and colleague Derek Whitehouse. Derek was onboard when we unleashed the Steadicam on the world in the 70's and he carried on supporting owners and brokering equipment for many years. He will be missed. My condolences to Mary and family.

What can I say about my wonderful brave brother, who survived meningitis as a 2 year old, and became a strong willed child. We grew up together with our cousin Nell, in Park Rd Netherton in the Black Country England. After marrying Mary Oldfield they joined my cousin and her family in the US. Almost 50 years ago now, but we always kept a close family. We had some wonderful times together through the years and our love and devotion has stood the test of time. God bless and keep you now, rest in the peace you so deserve. I believe we will be together again one day in paradise. God Bless and keep you until then.
Love always, Jan, husband Tony
