Help needed after unexpected tragic loss for Cothern family

Donation protected
Derrick Shane Cothern, 46 of Fayetteville Tn, and originally from Dickson Tn, passed from this world unexpectedly leaving behind a family struggling to cope with his loss. Derrick Loved fixing things, from motors, to big trucks, to any sort of home improvement project you could throw at him. There was almost nothing he couldn’t fix or do. He volunteered his free time, for many years, for the citizens of Dickson County as a member of the Dickson County Rescue Squad. Derrick made friends everywhere he went, you almost never saw him without a smile on his face, and he was always there to lend a hand to a stranger in need. Not only was Derrick a loving supportive husband to his wife of almost 21 years and an amazing caring father to three young girls, but he was their rock, their provider, and their entire world. This loss has left a huge void in their lives and an unexpected financial burden to bear. We are asking for support for his family to help remove some of the stress that his family is enduring and to help lay Derrick to rest. Any donations for funeral expenses would be greatly appreciated by the family. As soon as final arrangements are finalized they will be posted to Facebook. Thank You and God bless.
