We're so sorry to hear about Derek's passing. We spent many evenings at Hara Arena watching Derek and the rest of the Bombers play hockey. Please accept our condolences.

Have wonderful memories of Derek as a Dayton Bomber in the early 90s.. My deepest sympathy to Derek's family.

To a genuine friend and teammate that never turned his back on anyone. Your friendly demeanor, heart and personality will be missed dearly. Thank you for making this world a better place by being yourself and impacting all of those you came in contact with. RIP Crow! We will miss you!

Dear Rylie, Keira and Theresa from C76 have been thinking of you and your mom everyday since we heard about your dad. Please let us know if you need anything or just want to come over and talk.

To a very good friend(Crow)that I considered as a Son.
I will never forget you.
You were my best man when I married my wife Ramona.
I will always remember all the good times that we shared together, before I got married.
We were good friends, and friends like you are very few.
May you be at a better place. I will never forget you. With lots of good thought always.
