I recently battled cancer. During my toughest month in January, Derek was so encouraging and inspiring. Even during his own battle he thought and lifted up others. He will be greatly missed and many prayers to his family.

I had the privilege of working with Derek over the past several years. His knowledge and understanding of the industry made him a true professional, but his honesty, integrity and genuine warmth made him so much more to all his customers.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Kristen and the boys at this time of immeasurable loss.

I am so deeply saddened to hear of Derek's passing. As a fellow recruited walk-on at the U of M, Derek was always someone I looked up to. My memories of Derek are filled with him setting the example for all of us in his work ethic and commitment to greatness. His laugh and positive attitude were infectious. I am thankful that I knew Derek and I am praying for Kristen, the boys, and his entire family during this very difficult time. His fingerprints and impact will be seen for many years to come.

It was always great to see Derek's smile. His love of the Lord shined through as the caring individual he was. We shared enthusiasm for college football and had some fun times cheering for USC at the Coli. I will miss him, but I know he is with our Savior in pure joy.
