Derek Ogle, 1971-2008 R.I.P.
Posted by kris under personal
Derek, you will be missed. R.I.P. Motherfucker. Shot in the head by a cold-hearted bitch. From what I have now heard, said female claims D-bone shot himself. I can tell you with 100% certainty that is not the case. D had been down some dark roads before and this wasn’t one. He was doing well, constructing one-of-a-kind houses in Northern Cali. There is just no way on Earth he shot himself. Although, reports have it that it was his weapon that did the damage. He had been speaking of a “crazy indian bitch” (his own words, not mine) for over a year now. He never referred to her by name, only as that “Crazy indian bitch.”Here’s to you pal. I’ll drink some Red Hook for ya, in your honor. One a day, for six days. We had 18 great years together. You were the first true head I met at WSU. I was tired. D looked over at me, and said, out loud “I always take these when I have a headache:” and winked at me. It was a no-doze I think. And I loaned him a pencil. The class was Sociology 101. That was September 2000. I’ll cherish the times we had. To you, D-bone. Love ya man. Take care up there. I’ll catch up soon enough. ‘Til next time, CHEERS!(I am on the left, Derek is on the right, circa about 2002)~KM

I cannot say enough about the way Derek touched mine and so many other lives. He was my Best Man, and certainly one my best friends. We had some memorable and not so memorable times. His zest for life and imagination was unmatched. I’ll miss him for the rest of my days. It was not supposed to end this way. Love you Derek!

I met Derek at a party in Utah on Dec. 1997. I fell in love with him at first sight. He will always be the love of my life. We talked the night he died and I know too Kris that he DID NOT kill himself! I had met that “crazy indian bitch” in the past and begged him to stay away from her. She was trouble! I do not know how to carry on with my life now that he is gone. Though talking to his mom has been helping me. Derek and I had plans to be together forever once he got out of Arcata & back to Washington with Damon. There was no way he did this! My love & memories of him grow stronger everyday. His laugh, smile, touch, & how he would always help others in need will never be forgotten by me. Til we meet again my love..I love you!
