Dear Pavlin Family,
Derek must have been a wonderful person! He made a huge difference in the lives of everyone he knew ( and probably some he didn't know.) Hold on to that thought and find peace knowing he isn't in any pain anymore.
May God bless you.

Kathy and all:
A friend told me the very sad news about Derek. 😔🙏 I can see his face light up as we skied the fresh powder off of the King Ridge at Crystal Mountain Washington. And how excited he was when I dropped him off in Colorado to catch a train to Tahoe to work at a ski area for the winter.
I just wanted to let you know that my heart goes out to you (it always has ) please let me know how you were doing and if there is anything at all!!, That I can do. I am here for you. My prayers are with you all. 🙏🙏🙏😐
Robert, sorry to hear about the loss of your Son! It has to be a very hard time for your Family! I will pray to the Creator and ask him to open his arms too Derek, and also protect your Family in this time of need and grief!
