Derrick was a proud graduate of Lincoln High School and furthered his education at the Aviation Institute, Casselberry, Florida, where he graduated Cum Laude. His dedication, perseverance, and commitment to excellence were evident in every endeavor he pursued.
Derrick's presence brought comfort and stability to those around him. His character reflected the values of faith, compassion, and service that were instilled in him from an early age, leaving a lasting impression on family, friends, and all whose lives he touched.
He leaves to cherish his precious memory his loving parents, Deacon Bruce E.
