Derek's Air Force Retirement

On Friday, June 12, 2015 Derek retired from the Air Force after spending 25 1/2 years as a member of the military.  His career has taken him all over the world and he knows some pretty high up people.  This ceremony was so beautiful as they honored my son.  No mother could have been more proud of her son than I was and am.  

There were tons of tears shed by all that attended this event.  Derek was loved by everyone that had the privilege of working along side of him.  He is a great leader to those he had command over.

Now this little family of four will start a new life outside of the military.  It will be a great adjustment for all of them.
