Tee, Tim, Edwina, Kaye and all grans, it will be difficult making it through our holidays without Ed to argue with. I'm sure he is up there looking down on us and laughing. I loved him - he was so much fun, and I will miss him as I know you will. We'll all have to be strong together.

Tim, Nelvetha and family: You have our deepest sympathy. It was unfortunate that we could not physically be with you guys but rest assured, our thoughts and prayers are with you. Try as we might, we were unable to make the trip to OKC. However God is good and faithful. He shall remain with you in your time of need. Your dad and family have always been supportive and we shall forever be reminded of Mr. Derritt's kind, lively spirit. May God bless all of you.

The death of a love one can be a painful experience, but when we look to God, He will be our refuge. Even in the time of sorrow, always trust in the Lord with all of your heart. Lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. We love you always.
