God Bless Derrick's family, and friends, and all who had the pleasure of knowing Derrick. Derrick was a tremendous leader and an even greater person. He always had time for me, professionally and extremely, forthright, honest, and fair. He will be sorely missed. My deepest and heartfelt sympathy on the passing of a Derrick, and his loved ones. God Bless.
