My deepest sympathy to the family for your loss, it is comforting to know that when Jesus walked the earth, he resurrected loved ones back to life on earth, such as Mary and Martha's brother; Lazarus -John 11:43, 44. These same miracles will soon take place again, but on a much larger scale. Jehovah God has given all authority to his son, Jesus Christ to resurrect all those in the memorial tombs – John 3:16; John 5:27–29; Psalms 37:11.

Tracey, Scott, and family, I was shocked and saddened when I heard of Derek's passing. I will never forget when he came to the office one day with you and walked into my office.He was about ten at the time. It was break time and I was leaning back in my chair listening to the radio. He hollered at you and said" Hey Mom, I want this guy's job, he doesn't do anything!!" My prayers are with you. May God bless you in a very special way. Jim Walker Conway

There are times when words are just not adequate - and this is one of those times. Derrick was my and Jamison's Hog Buddy - the basketball games will never be as much fun without our "boy"! We love him and will miss him more than we can say. Thinking of all of you.

Scott and Tracey, God blessed you both with an amazing son in Derek. He always had a smile on his face and a hand extended to all who met him. Derek was a kind and caring person just like both of his parents. We are going to miss "Trouble" on the baseball field helping coach. Wooster lost a great person but God gained a perfect angel. We love you.
