Derek, my childhood friend, neighbor, playmate, all of our lives are richer for having you as a part of our amazing "gang on Keystone Street" Though years and life has separated us, it was comforting to know you were still there... You will missed. My thoughts and prayers are with your Father and family. You were a part of my childhood and that memory will never fade away old friend.

You always knew how to make us laugh! I am so blessed to have grown up on Keystone, I couldn't imagine a better street or better friends to have grown up with. You will truly be missed!
