PeterKAVANAGHPassed away peacefully at Royal Derby Hospital on 22nd January 2026, aged 60 years.
Dearly loved father of Nathan, fiancée to Stephanie and a cherished grandad to Flynn, a much loved father in law to Paige, son to Mary and the late Jerry, a loving brother, uncle, cousin and role model to many.
Pete was a devoted Derby County fan and football coach for Sherwin Football Club for many years, football being a big part of his life.
Pete found comfort spending time with family and friends in his local pubs, The Norman Arms and The Oast House.
He would love walking with his black labrador Benson, stopping off at a few pubs on the way.
Pete's underlying caring personality, wisdom, character, advice and presence will be truly missed by all friends and family.

Requiem Mass will be held on Friday 6th March at 10.30am, followed by burial at Nottingham Road Cemetery, Derby DE21 6FN.

RIP, Pete.

Best mates at STM. Our Neil was best mates with Dave, and we both thought we'd marry Kath!

I'll raise a glass for you, buddy. I promise.

Fortunate to have known Pete for best part of 55 years as a fellow Sherwin and St George’s / Thomas More / Normanton lad.
Knew his his dad (Jerry) mum Josie (Mary), Kath & Dave.
Condolences Nathan to you and all the Kavanagh family, a huge loss. Pete was a lovely kind genuine lad, backbone of Sherwin and friend to many. Always enjoyed catching up with Pete and chatting. Very very sad. Love to you all
