Derek I know you have been gone a long time but I still remember your to say Happy Birthday to you. My son has gotten old you are 51 years old now. I still miss you everyday. Much Love is Still Here.
Mama

My dear son, this date has to be the saddest day in history for me, because it was on this day you lost your life. Hadn't seen you in 20 years but I remember everything about you. Your walk, your talk, even your smell. I almost cry every time I write on this page. I miss you so very very much.
With all my love Mama.

Hey Darling,
I did not forget about your 50th birthday. Just think you are 50 years old almost as old as me. I love you and still miss you so very very much. I wish you knew how much I wish you could still be here with me.
With All My Love
Mama

Derek it has been 19 years since you left us. But my heart aches as though it was today. Mama misses you so much and love you so much. My only hope is one day I will see you. With all my love .
Mama

Derek it has been 18 years today that I last saw you. Though it seems like yesterday. You were my first baby. Never thought you would leave me here. God knows mama still loves you.

It has been 17 years, yet I still miss you like it was today. You will remain in my heart forever. I am sorry you never got to meet your niece Kayleigh or your grandson Tydrek.. I love you so much.

Mama

Derek you have been gone 17 years. It feels like I just saw you yesterday. You are missed and loved more than you could have ever know. With all my love.
Mama

Another birthday has come and gone, but we talk about you, we laugh about you and we cry about you. Love you to the grave.

Mama

RIP, Derek. I'm sorry for your loss, Ms. Brown.

Derek has been gone almost 16 years, but I still miss him everyday.
