Hey yall,
My thoughts are with you and the rest of your family. Me and Derek went to OHS together and graduated in the same class. I met Derek through Sean Perry. After that we were hanging out everyday after school just doing what guys do. He went to Kerr lake with us on our Spring break; Senior year. What a guy. He would crack me up and make everyone laugh around the campfire. Ole Derek was a one-of-A-kind guy and still is! I dont believe I had a chance to talk to you guys at the funeral but, My dearest sympathy for you. Yall, Trully raised a great Son and friend!
