Default Sad news

When I heard about this a couple days ago it came as a great shock to me personally. To have another accident so close to Tim's is extremely hard to take. Derek was a great friend to my wife and I and many from the Ionia/MI area. Derek was arguably the friendliest, funnest and most enthusiastic contest pilot I have met. He impacted many of the Ionia pilots personally, myself included. Derek was soon to be off to Uvalde to represent Canada for Worlds in 15m. Our thoughts are with Derek's many friends and family. Derek is dearly missed.
