Derek was a Sales Representative for various companies including: MacKay Forest Products, Atlantic Home Improvements, Saint John Door and Window and Westmorland Homes. He was a very outgoing person; Derek would give you the shirt off his back. Derek loved spending time with his family, friends, animals and had a great appreciation for cooking and the wilderness. Besides his devoted wife Amy, Derek is survived by two sons: Tom (Jennifer Stackhouse) of Saint John and Tim (Kendra) of Quispamsis; daughter, Kate Brown of Saint John; two grandchildren: Jesse and Kelsey; brother, Ken (Lillian) of Quispamsis; sister, Rosalind Moyst (Howard) of Dartmouth, NS; mother-in-law, Jennie Giberson; brother-in-law Kerry (Maxine); six sisters-in-law: Anne (Paul), Ruth (Ian), Jean (Steve), Joan (Greg), Holly (Gord) and Beth (Dan) and several nieces and nephews.
