He lived in the Southern California area until he relocated to Lake Havasu City, AZ, late August of 1993. Derral was a good man. He was a loving, devoted, and amazing husband, father, grandfather, son, brother-in-law, uncle, and friend. Derral was a tile sub-contractor for 28 years. Derral loved vintage automotive garage décor (signs, gas, and oil cans). He was a Volkswagen enthusiast, but also liked old Ford trucks and cars. He was recently in the process of having the engine rebuilt on his 1970 Ford F100, with the help of his son-in-law. He enjoyed attending car shows. Derral’s grandkids held a special place in his heart. He was their favorite human, just about everything he did revolved around them. Derral was loved by all who met him. He will be missed greatly.

Arrangements were placed into the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home.
