To all Dee Dee's brothers and sisters: We were saddened to hear of Dee Dee's passing. He is with Reggie, Chris and Jerome. I will never forget a minor softball game over in the Star Hall Garden one evening a long time ago. He was only a little fella. He was playing center field and here is what he looked like. He had on short pants, an uniform that came down over his knees, with a big softball glove on one hand and a big slice of bread and molasses in the other. It was a picture worth a thousand words. Take comfort from each other and celebrate his life and memories. God Bless Felix and Janet

To my cousins, You are all in our prayers. I was so sad to hear about Dee Dee. I have been thinking about all the laughs and the hundreds of card games through the years. Nobody could shuffle cards like Dee Dee! He spent a lot of time at our house when I was growing up and he was always special to us, especially to Mom and Dad. He had a good heart. I haven't seen him in years but I can picture him as if it was yesterday. So many cups if tea! I am glad I am home to say goodbye to him. Rest in peace Dee Dee, You will always be missed! Love, Mandy, Mike and Girls

I send my deepest sympathy to all of DeeDee's brothers and sisters and their families ---especially his nieces and nephews. I remember DeeDee as a young lad so full of energy and always smiling. He loved to play pranks and used his overabundance of God-given energy to the fullest.I have not seen him since the late 60's but have thought about him over the years on many occasions. I am glad that he is 'home' now with you and being buried next to his Dear Mom and Dad.I'm quite sure DeeDee is making the Angels giggle and The Lord smile. Rest well in your heavenly home,now Derek...You will be missed. --- May the Good Lord bless,comfort and guide all of you through your grief in the days ahead. I know you have some wonderful memories to share with each other and others... When DeeDee was around there was never a dull moment. I will remember DeeDee and all of you in prayer.~~Sincerely, Patsy

To the Collins Family, May Derek finally have peace of mind in his resting place with Reggie, Chris and Jerome. Dee Dee (as we always called him) was a great individual whose heart got lost when he lost his Mom and Dad. He was a trooper who survived a lot of obstacles in his life. May he forever be remembered for the gentle, kind soul he really was. RIP, my friend.
