Sharon and Johnny, we are so very saddened to hear about Derrick! He was such a kind, gentleman and always with the biggest smile whenever we saw each other.
I loved seeing him grow up across the street from us and watched him outside!
May God give you comfort and peace and understanding!
Love you all!
Betty Day and Family
