He was an ambitious young man and was formerly employed at Simonar Shell and Stodola’s IGA in Luxemburg where he was well liked and very respected. Most recently he accepted a position as a Property Preservationist through Mark’s Services and absolutely loved his job and looked forward to going to work every day. Derrick had so many interests in life but his absolute greatest passion was his faith, children and Mission Trips where he was known as “Monkey” by the children in Myanmar. He was very involved at Celebration Church in many areas but was most active in the children’s ministries where the children loved him and he made such a difference. The manner in which he touched people’s lives was truly a gift~ he was a loving son, brother, nephew and a friend to many and will always be lovingly remembered and sorrowfully missed. Derrick had a unique gift of self teaching as well as teaching others, be it sign language, computer programming, flower gardening, along with so many other areas.
