Dear Michelle and Dotzko family,
We were shocked to learn of Derek's passing last night. He was such a great guy to talk to and I always enjoyed our chats about family experiences, travel, our professions, the building of his new home and our common interest in sports, particularly hockey. One could not meet a nicer guy, a gentle giant with that huge smile. He will certainly be missed. Our thoughts & prayers are with you during this extremely difficult time.

Dear Michelle and Dotzko family,
It is with an extreme heavy heart that I express my sincerest condolences to you. Derek was a very unique and talented man. I have very fond memories of his friendship during high school and beyond. He had the brains and the braun to say the least. I'm sure his talents were obvious to anyone who knew him. Although we have not crossed paths as much recently, the memories of friendship are fresh. May you find strength and comfort from those who support and pray for you during this difficult time.

Upon moving back to the area in 2004 one of the first orders of business was to find a chiropractor. I must admit I was a little nervous when I received my first "bear hug/adjustment" from Dr. Derek. He has treated our family with care and concern over the years and we have been truly grateful for his contributions to our care. Our thoughts go out to you all. Leah & Scott Cartmel Buckhorn, ON

Dear Michelle and Dotzko family:
I just heard the very sad news about Derek from another CMCC classmate. On behalf of the class of 1993 please accept our condolences. Derek was a very well-liked member of our class. He was very quick with a smile, a laugh and a joke. He was also an excellent chiropractor and I know that he will be dearly missed by his many patients.
