He studied sociology at Brockport College. He worked at Job Accommodations for a number of years teaching blind people the computer and different other types of equipment for the visually impaired.
He will be missed.
He was a wonderful teacher and friend. We would talk on the phone twice a week on Mondays and Fridays. We had interesting conversations. We would talk about the books we’ve read and about current events. Deric would recommend several books to me.
He even gave me a talking book reader called Victor Reader Stream Second generation.We helped each other.
I’ve had Deric and Diana over my house a few times. We’d have lunch and then we’d either go outside in the gazebo or down the basement and play music. They stayed for supper, after which we’d talk until it was time for them to go home. Those were the days.
