“Derrick played a tank game called Iron Force, and even though it’s just a video game, I was his Legion commander. I got to know Derrick a bit and I thought he was a really nice guy, very friendly and outgoing, and also very good at the game. I wondered what happened to him when he hadn’t played in a while and I was saddened to learn that he had passed. He impressed me as being a good man and I send my condolences to his friends and family. His gaming nickname was Crush, so rest in peace Crush.”
