I am sadden to hear about Derrick's Passing. He was always polite, smiling and a fun person to be around. He was like a brother to my son's Steven and Terrance. I remember seeing them playing as children, Steve, Terrance, Derrick and Lil Hump! My house was the neighborhood house for them. Diane (Sheen) I am praying for the family and you can call me anytime if you need anything don't hesitate to let me know. Love you and Krya!
