Help Give Derek Hagspiel a Proper Farewell

Hello my name is Carolyn Hagspiel and it is with a heavy heart that I write my older brother and only sibling, Derek Hagspiel, died suddenly and unexpectedly in a hotel room in Connecticut all the way across the country while in training for his new job.

Derek was only 44 and has three biological children including two teenagers from a previous marriage and a toddler daughter and is engaged to her mother. He is also a father figure to her two other daughters.

Because of the circumstances under which he died, it has come as a shock and has been difficult for us to allocate funds for his funeral services and his autopsy results are still pending.

My brother did not deserve to die alone and he does not deserve to just be disposed of at the morgue in Connecticut with no real service. Because of this, I am asking to raise money to give him a proper service and cremation.
