                          LOVE   DERRICK

My daddy loved to be able to take me out to eat whether it was just a simple side of the road truck stop which were my favs or more upper class like a steak house or chiniese or buffet style. he was definely a nut i recall being at chiniese and he would start meowing like a cat, once at western sizzler he asked the wiatress if the stuff on the salad bar was grass and kibbles and bits, she wasn't as amused as we were, I guess some poelpe don't have a sense of humor.                                                                                                                                        I have so many stories of eating out with him that i could go on and on but I won't. Although i would give anything just to be able to go eat or just anywhere with him just one more time. i miss him so much but I will NEVER forget all the wonderful memories he created down through my childhood. he may not have been the perfect dad and there 24/7 but he was and always will be my HERO.

                                   I LOVE YOU DADDY
