Derek,
You taught me so much about how to love and be a good person. It will never be the same without you. I will miss our talks and coming home to you & Darcy on the front porch. Your smile was the greatest after a bad day. I will always remember the great advice you gave.
You will never be forgotten.

I was saddened to learn of the tragic death of Derek. To lose someone so young - it's terrifying, and enraging, and just so sad. He is with his father now, and Kenny will watch over him and keep him safe. My deepest heart-felt sympathies for your loss.

Find the strength in each other, your family, your friends, and your faith as you try to move forward, and know that Derek will always be with you. There was a much larger plan for Derek. We believe that..."Life is the Journey". Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this most difficult time.

You have given so much support to others over the years and now it's time for you to let others do for you. If there is ever anything I can do don't hesitate to ask. Here's a hug.

I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Thier love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories.
Find comfort in knowing that your lives have been enriched by having shared Derek's love.
Though someday we all have to part with those we love, they are not lost. We are always better for having loved. In this way, love transcends even death.
May God's strength be with you. Know that we are here for you in any way you need.
With love and prayers,

Gail& Darcy,
My girls, Sarah and Katie,were blessed to share life with Derek. When they would relay those times to me it was always with smiles on their faces. Now they struggle with you to try and make sense or find understanding in this tragedy. I wish words would relieve the pain, even for a moment. I hope that being with Derek's friends will bring moments of peace and warmth through your tears. Please know you are in the thoughts and prayers of many.

The pain you feel,
I can see in your eyes.
In your tears, in your voices,
And in the hurt in your whys.
But despite all the anger,
We must keep our faith alive,
For the ones you all lost,
Derek really did survive.
Derek dances across your memories,
And leaves footprints in your thoughts.
And looking upon you now,
Derek can see you love him lots.
Derek may have left this world,
But he never went alone.
For in the kingdom of our hearts,
Derek sits upon a diamond throne.
Derek’s spirit is now free,
And God embraced Derek with open arms,
Derek will flourish in a safe place,
Where Derek lives without worries or harms.
And in God's grace,
Derek is showered with praise and love to give,
Can you imagine a better paradise,
Where you would want your child to live?
For life's greatest gift,
Is our place in heaven above,
A place where happiness thrives,
And hearts are filled with love.
So take your time to cry,
And let emotions run deep,
But never forget that in your hearts,
The memories you will eternally keep.

My heart is absolutely broken for all of you. There has been such tragedy in our family and the godsend is that Derek had no time for agony. But as a mom, I want you to know, Gail and Darcy, that family is the most important and all of us here in Calgary wish we could walk with you, Aileen, everyone. Life is way too short, the gathering of the angels happened way too fast for Derek but know that he is flying now with very honourable people, especially his Dad. Our love and our prayers are with you, call anytime day or night. Always & Forever, Marj and family
