Derrick was one of the coolest freshmens I knew last year. I was cool with him from then on. Everybody was. I really missed him, and when I found out that he got killed, I was on the computer, and my best friend was talking to her boyfriend and he told her. I was shocked as ever, and at first I didn't believe it because I had just saw him that Friday in school. So I waited until Monday to see if he would be in the Commons like always, but he wasn't there. Instead, his mother and father was....Cleaning out his locker. But now I realize what they mean when they say you should Cherish the ones you love because tomorrow's not promised to nobody. But I do send my condolences out to his family, and I'm watching over his little sister Nikki for him.
R.I.P. Derrick, I'll always remember you.

I Love You!!!

My deepest sympathy goes out to my brother and sister-n-law. I still can't believe what happened, but all things happen for a reason. God don't make any mistakes. May God keep on blessing the whole family and I will continue to pray for yall!

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Derrick's death. It was a pleasure to serve as his physician for the past five years and I will miss seeing him each year now. May your family be comforted in knowing that the Lord will not put more on you that what you are able to bear. I am here for your family if you need anything.
