Derek DiGregorio

In loving memory of our beloved nephew and cousin, Derek DiGregorio, who was tragically taken from us August 16, 2003.

They say there is a reason

They say that time will heal

But neither time nor reason

Will change the way we feel.

For no one knows the heartache

That lies behind our smiles,

No one knows how many times

We have broken down and cried.

We want to tell you something

So there won’t be any doubt,

You’re so wonderful to think of

But so hard to be without.

We cannot bring the old days back,

When we were all together

The family chain is broken now,

But memories live forever.
