Derek Beach

 Derek Beach was diagnosed with stage four Hodgkins Lymphoma in October 2008.  Two weeks later he married the love of his life, Kaela.  In July 2009, they welcomed their son Camden into their lives.  Derek received his first bone marrow transplant just a few weeks later.  Derek continued to battle cancer enduring radiation, chemotherapy, and another transplant, all with an incredible attitude.  Derek always tried to have a smile on his face.  Our Heavenly Father called Derek home about two weeks ago.  Kaela has been my daughter in law Anamin's best friend for many years.
It was my pleasure to help Anamin give this
gift to her sweet friend Kaela.
May Kaela and Camden be blessed
as they remember Derek's wonderful
qualities.
