Derek Jon Davenport

In loving memory of our beloved Derek Jon Davenport

“Gone But Not Forgotten”

April 9, 1980 – November 2, 2010

It’s been three years now that you’ve been gone. I miss you holding me in your arms and hearing your voice and always being with you. You were my everything–my best friend–my lover–my protector. I’ve never met someone like you Babe, you had a heart of gold.

I hope our son grows up to be a good guy like you were and treats women like you treated me! I will surely teach him to! He acts just like you and is doing great! He’s in school! He’s 28 months; he’s getting so big. I know you would have been a great father!

I know you watch over us all; every second of every day! There isn’t a day that I don’t think about you. You have my heart, Derek Jon, and nothing or anyone can change that! Remember “True love lasts forever.” We love you.

I love you Dad!!!

Love, your son,

Dalton Derek
