I’m sorry but I did not find out about Derek’s passing until this last weekend. When Derek started out at Lilly in T17 b shift working for Glenn Greason, Glenn started Derek on the process I was on to start training him. I was totally surprised on how easy Derek picked things up, this guy remembered everything I told and showed him. Derek was easily the most easy going never get excited guy I ever met. After T17 was tore down Derek and I was put on the RTO piping project on the bshift working for Glenn Greason whom was now supervising the b shift pipe shop. Derek and I was to pipe up T 27 to the RTO. That was the greatest 9months or so! I was shocked to hear about Derek’s passing, I considered Derek to be a brother and I’m going to be saddened for quite some time. This guy was the sharpest tool in the tool box hands down, I’m sure many people will miss Derek as much as I will. Love you Derek and I hope to run into you on the other side someday!
Our prayers will be with you and your family, it was nice to work with you . It was fun

Praying for the Dishon family. May your grief be softened by your many memories of love and time together.
Derek, it's so hard to believe that you have left us. You will always remain that kid cousin that I loved running the country with. Rest in peaceful slumber.
Such a great guy, so sad for the loss so early in his life. Derek and I along with 4 others hired in to Eli Lilly to the same building on the same day, June 19, 1990. A major change in all of our lives, not knowing what to expect. We all kind of went separate ways after a couple of years. I bumped into Derek off and on for the next 10 years. He always had a smile. For the last 15 years of my career I was honored to work to work with him in EC, always very helpful and willing to share his expertise.He will be missed. Thoughts and prayers to the family. .
Derek was one of the most genuine, kind people we’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. He is already missed. All our sympathy and love.
I had the pleasure of working with Derek for 10+ years while being the Dept Head of EC. Those years were the most enjoyable of my career due to working with people like Derek. He was not only a top notch operator, but he was a tremendous person to be around. He always came to work with a smile on his face and was a positive influence on me and others in the dept. I was shocked to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Dishon and extended family. He will be missed.
Shannon & family- so very sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire family...
Derek will be greatly missed and I am very sorry for your loss. He and my dad Terry worked together on nights and really enjoyed talking about the Lord and about each others families! I will continue to pray for peace and comfort for you all during this very difficult time. - Brandon Blankenship

So sorry to hear of Derek’s passing. He was a pleasure to work with. A good righteous upstanding man and will be missed by us all. Praying for peace and strength for his family.
Derek was a great co- worker of mine I met shortly after starting EVONIK. I was put on nights and was so happy he was on my shift he made it enjoyable to come in I always enjoyed his input and company!!! He also introduced me to the best splitting ax I’ve ever used the x-27 which now every friend I have uses this ax!!! Your a great man and will be greatly missed!!!
Praying for you and your family during this difficult time. We are so sorry for your loss. Angie and Dale are our good friends and we know this is hard for all of you but hopefully knowing that so many people are praying for you will bring you a moment of peace.
My deepest sympathy to the entire Dishon family. You will all be in my prayers.
Never have I known somebody quite so kind and genuine. I will every single day miss the opportunity to find myself in the company of somebody that I look up to and agree with. I look forward earnestly to when we meet again, in order to make up for everything we didn’t have the chance to do here on earth. My only hope is that the lives we lead going forward are ones that honor the legacy of what we have been left with, in hopes that we all one day leave this place better than we found it, as those who came and gone before us have. My love to everybody in these tumultuous times.
Best father in law anyone could ask for
We are so heartbroken to know that Derek is gone. What a wonderful guy, always with a friendly smile.
He had a passion of caring about others. Rest high in Heaven Derek and you will always be remembered.

My condolences to Derek’s family and those of us who worked with Derek admired him as a tremendously gifted and talented peer and loved him for the Husband, father , and wonderful person he was at all times.
It’s been 11 years since I’ve seen Derek, but I had the opportunity to work around him several times over the years. He was always a joy to work with, very dependable, and great at his job. I’m glad I got the chance to know him. Gone too soon. Rest In Peace. My sincere condolences go out to the family, as I’m sure he will be sorely missed.
Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
