Love yall

I have known Derek since 2001 when I met his mother Linda and his brother David whom I had the pleasure of working with for many years at Wal-Mart. His mom was like a second mother to me. Derek was a unique person and I remember helping him out once when his mom was in the hospital. I stopped by to see if he needed anything and he just wanted some chips and some soda, so I went to Wal-Mart and got him a big bag of chips and some soda.
