This past Tuesday, February 2, marked the 8
th anniversary of the sad passing of our dearly beloved Winston Derrick, one of the founders of
Observer Media Group cum
NEWSCO. It was a time for deep reflection and the sharing of fond memories. Some told of Winston’s brash, unstudied, roguish charm. Others shared fascinating tales of his wry, sardonic wit.
