Obituary: Wayne Lawrence Derrick was born on 22, 1939 to Wilbur Smith and Ruth Derrick. losing his mother to illness at an early age, Wayne was raised first by his grandmother and then from the age of 6 by his adoptive parents, Charles K. and Mary W. Smith. Nicknamed Chops from childhood, Wayne grew up in West Brighton and graduated from PS 18 and Curtis High School, where he starred in football and was the first black player to be named team captain. graduating from Curtis he attended South Carolina State University on a full student-athlete scholarship, and played alongside future NFL Hall of Famer David Deacon Jones. college Chops was invited and tried out for the New York Titans (now the Jets), and continued to play football with the semi-professional Staten Island Panthers Football Club. In 1958 Chops enlisted in the U.S. Army, serving in the Corps of Engineers for two years. being honorably discharged he began a career with the NYC Board of Education, working at PS 18 as a Boiler Mechanic and later as a Certified Stationary Fireman. Chops role in the life of the school and community was much larger than his job title. He was a teacher, advocate and role model who made sure that the doors to the school were open to the community. He mentored and provided jobs to young men, encouraging them to become leaders and mentors themselves. He coached and sponsored teams and programs, including the Bachelors, Future Stars Basketball and Bradley Bombers Football. In 1980, his junior division Bachelors became the first and only team from Staten Island to win the city-wide summer basketball championship. Many of the young people in the programs he sponsored went on to excel in high school and college, and were inspired by his example to support the community through sports, mentoring and community programs. Chops maintained his position at PS 18 until his retirement in 1995, and his legacy at the school is preserved through the Wayne Derrick Award, which has been presented to the top athlete in the graduating class since the 1970s, and the Wayne Derrick Library, which was renovated and named in his honor in 2002. On 22, 1986, Chops married the love of his life Marcella Pastor, whose five children he helped to raise as his own, and the family moved to New Castle, Delaware. Chops health began to deteriorate in his later years and in , 2013 he was diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis, a terminal heart condition with no known cure. His doctors gave him a two-month prognosis, but in testament to his fighting spirit and will to live, Chops battled the disease for more than 13-months before passing away on the evening of , 9, 2014. Throughout his life Chops received many honors and recognitions for his tireless, generous efforts in the school and community, including: Staten Island Urban League (1973), Brown Bombers Sports Award (1974), Womens Auxiliary/Mike Cicero Foundation (1974), Markham YMCA Man of the Year Award (1975), Staten Island Developmental (1979), Staten Island Advance Football Advisory Board (1983), PS 18 PTA (1984), Rising Stars (1990), Shiloh AME Zion Community Father of the Year (1994), Power Moves (2001), Choice Not Chance (2004), Staten Island Sports Hall of Fame Unsung Hero Award (2007), Leadership Through Sports (2009), Brothers (2011) and Ryan Memorial Award (2012). Chops had an incredible work ethic and brought the right mixture of toughness and compassion to everything he did. He had the ability to make people feel uniquely special. Chops loved music (especially jazz), sports (Yankees, Giants and Knicks), and dogs (Baron, Rhapsody, and Conan). He will be loved and remembered for his powerful voice, his Er-uhs, and a genuine love for his family, friends and community. Wayne Lawrence Derrick, aka Chops, is survived by his wife Marcella, children Rudy (wife Shelia), Steven, David (wife Pardeice), Melanie (husband Gedeon Ngadna), and Linda; nine grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren; his brothers Walter Poppy Collins (wife Carmela) and Charles J. Smith (wife Mary); his sister Lynette Oates; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, neighbors, friends, and community members. Memorial Service 3pm., , 15, 2014 at Congo , 2317 N. Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware. |
