Very early this morning a friend of my son and daughter was rundown on his motorcycle along with 2 other boys. Derick died from the attack and the other 2 are bruised and shaken. The driver in the suv was a person they knew, he was arrested and then let go on lack of eveidence. There is a full investigation on going to get the truth from the driver. The survivng bikers told the police it was a deliberate act.
Derick was at my sons and daughters weddings and has been to our house on many occasions, he has always been polite and curtious and friendly.
At my daughters reception during my speech I started to tear up and as i did a big YEAH!!. was heard, it was Derick in support of my showing my emotions and love and pride for losing my little girl to justin..
I have added a photo of derick and my son Danny. Derick is on the right.

I dont know all of the information and facts but will know more tomorrow.
On top of this tragedy and to make it that much worse is that it follows a day where I got to meet some new friends and take a long awaited for ride.
RIP Derick, you are loved and you will be missed. I pray for your family and friends so that they may better accept their lose.
