Derrelle Ladone Thruston was born March 3, 1987 the son of Joe Patterson and the late Charmaine Thruston in Evansville, IN.
During the early years he was educated in the EVSC school system through which he developed many life long friendships. He enjoyed hanging with his friends, and most importantly spending time with his children and family.
As a young adult, Derrelle overcame many obstacles in life that many his age weren’t blessed to overcome. Even in his darkest hours, he would find time to enlighten those around him that were going through their own trials. In recent months, he found his way back to the love of God.
“Relle” had several passions – he enjoyed cooking, he never met a stranger, loved fishing, and loved traveling. He was the life of the party. He was quick to tell a joke and made sure everyone was okay.
Derrelle leaves to cherish his memory his 3 sons; Mondrelle, Devoni and Daivon, one daughter; Brielle, four brothers; Dontae Hines, Damareo Thruston, Djuan Lambert and Keith Osborne, one sister; Danyale Thruston, aunts; Romidine Thruston, Yolanda Thruston, and Treva Douglas, a special family friend; Fredericka Hampton. He also leaves behind a host of nieces, nephews, family and friends.
Private services will be held.
