I learned of Derrel's passing just today- I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Both he and your mom, Joan, were great friends of my parents, Rene and Carol Diamond. I found that, as time passed and my own parents aged, they spent their time and energies on what really mattered, and for them, it was the joy of time spent with truly lovely people and close friends such as Derrel and Joan. I recall both Derrel's kindness and dry wit- he was alovely man.

To the family,
So many thoughts and too few words.
I had known Derrel for many years.
I first got to know Derrel when I worked with him at Burnco. Derrel was always a great guy then and since.
With sympathy from both of us.
