Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Derek. He was a cherished father who brought so much love and light into our lives. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

As we come to terms with Derek’s passing, we are faced with the difficult task of arranging his final farewell. We want to give him the dignified and heartfelt send-off he deserve, but unfortunately, the financial burden of funeral expenses is overwhelming for our family during this already challenging time.

I appreciate all of you ❤️
