Timothy Derringer Obituary
Tim was a former truck driver for Jacobsen Trucking. He received an award for two million miles of accident-free driving, of which he was very proud of. After retiring from truck driving, he would spend the warm months in Indiana with his friends and adopted family at Johnny Junxions. He loved to help out around the store, and especially outside in the produce area. Tim was always there to give a hand and a smile.
Tim is survived by his father, William Charles Derringer; his uncle, Roscoe Derringer; several cousins; and his friends "family" at Johnny Junxions.
Cremation was chosen and his family and friends will hold a graveside service at a later date. Tim will be buried next to his mother and grandmother in Peavey Cemetery, in Liberty, KY.
Tim also loved to write poetry. He would often write one for his friends, especially if he thought they needed some encouragement.
ROLLING THUNDER Dreaming of rolling thunder On a clear day sounds the sun Brings me to my steering thoughts I sure am having fun My eyes have seen the glory On these dotted lines I pass As pupil scenes are born to teach My mind's a happy class Take me through the chapters Of this road I call my home With every mile adventured How my heart has truly grown At night I bless the stars above With compass in my hand And wake up with a journey's touch I live to ride this land Behind the wheel I'm still growing A million miles am safe and sound Showing pride through the love of each quest As one to another we all share this road Tis an honor to have you as a guest
