HUBER, Derrick Oswald
August 22, 1963 - January 18, 2013
It is with deep regret that we announce the sudden passing of Derrick Huber on January 18, 2013. He leaves behind his best friend and loving wife Lisa. He is also survived by his adoring mother Anna Huber (predeceased by father Edmund), his brothers Harold and Arthur; his mother and father-in-law Florina and Gary Neal and brother-in-law Rod Desjardins, nieces and nephews: James, Anna, Madeline and their mother Melissa, Laura, Jessica, and Wyatt as well as numerous cousins and friends. Derrick will also be greatly missed by his other best furry friend, Lucy. Derrick was employed as a Mechanical Engineer and was well respected by his peers and will be greatly missed in the Construction Community. Derrick was always thoughtful in thinking of others before himself and was always willing to lend a hand. A Memorial Service will be held at Springfield Funeral Home, 2020 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC on Thursday, January 24, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations in Derrick's memory may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, #4 – 1551 Sutherland Avenue, Kelowna, BC V1Y 9M9.

To the Huber Family....I was so sorry to receive news last night of Derrick's sudden passing.

I had the profound pleasure of working with Derrick at Creo Inc. for many years and I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. He was a wonderful friend and colleague.

Lisa - my heartfelt condolences - I didn't have the pleasure of meeting you but I was so happy to see that Derrick had gotten married - he'd been looking for you a long time, I'm glad he found you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

To Derrick's wife Lisa and to Derrick's family. My deepest sympathies are with you at this most difficult time. I had the privilege of working with Derrick during our team years and had even a greater privilege of being a friend. Derrick always had a smile on his face and was truly a beautiful person. May you find comforts in the days and weeks ahead and know that many are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
