Derrick was a beloved father, grandfather, and husband. He was funny, kind, and willing to help out anyone at any time. He was the best dad, but an even better grandpa. He enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren more than anything. He knew how to fill a room with laughter and make sure the ones close to his heart knew they were loved. Derrick had a desire to collect the neatest things and share those with others. Derrick could entertain you for hours telling of the adventures he encountered while growing up in Connecticut and Maine. Even after moving to Texas, there was never a dull moment in his adventures–you would never be bored in his presence. Derrick leaves behind many loving and happy memories to his family and friends.
