In Loving Memory of My Friend, Derrick Linton
We remember a man whose presence made the world a little brighter and our burdens a little lighter. Derrick was more than just a friend — he was a brother in spirit, a steady hand when life felt shaky, and a source of laughter when the days were heavy.
Derrick had a way of making people feel seen and valued. He didn’t just listen to your words — he listened to your heart. Whether it was a simple conversation, a shared joke, or a quiet moment of understanding, he left an imprint that will never fade.
He lived with kindness in his actions, loyalty in his friendships, and love in his heart. To know Derrick was to know generosity without expectation, joy without condition, and strength without arrogance.
Though the ache of his absence is deep, we find comfort in knowing that his life touched so many. His memory will live on in the stories we tell, the lessons he taught us, and the love he gave so freely.
Rest well, my friend. Until we meet again, we will carry you in our hearts.
