The 1923 Cast & Crew is fundraising for The Chavez family. Derek is survived by his wife Kristen and daughters Ava & Emmy.

As one of our Production Supervisors, Derek was an integral part of the 1923 Family as well as a friend and mentor to many. We are shocked and saddened by his sudden passing. We want to show our support for his young family as they navigate these next chapters.

Whatever you can contribute, small or large, will help his family tremendously.
