Derrick Patrick Edward Farrow

Derrick Patrick Edward Farrow was a 33-year-old member of the Modesto/Ceres community whose life mattered to family, friends and neighbors. Public records and funeral listings identify him as Derrick Farrow, born in 1981, who lived in the Modesto/Ceres area. While the public record is limited about private details of his daily life, available notices place him among people who called Stanislaus County home and who were connected to local families and gatherings.

Contemporary local notices list Allen Mortuary in connection with funeral arrangements, indicating community members had the opportunity to offer condolences and remember Derrick in person. Newspapers and local reporting from the period identify him as a resident of the area and note his passing on December 26, 2014. These sources show Derrick’s life touched people across Modesto and Ceres and that his loss was felt locally.

Beyond formal notices, the public record for Derrick is sparse and does not provide an extended public biography of occupations, hobbies, or detailed family listings. That absence does not diminish his personhood: he was someone’s relative, friend, and neighbor. A respectful remembrance honors that fact and acknowledges the limits of what is available in newspapers and public notices.

Those who knew Derrick may remember everyday moments not captured in archives: visits with family, friendships, neighborhood connections, and routines that give shape to a life. Though public sources concentrate on official notice of his passing, the core truth is simple and human — Derrick lived among people who mattered to him, and his death on December 26, 2014 left an absence in their lives. This page seeks to hold that human truth with dignity, honoring Derrick’s place in his community rather than centering the circumstances of his death.
