June 20, 1967 - June 16, 2021
On Wednesday, June 16th, 2021, loving father and grandfather, Derek Millhorn (Papa), passed away at home in the company of his daughter, at the age of 53. Derek was born in Spokane, WA to Mary R. Jans and John F. Millhorn and resided in the Spokane area his entire life. Derek was a very hard-working man who was a warehouse manager for Central Premix Prestress for more than 25 years and had a lawn care business on the side. He is survived by his two children, Katie, and Trevor Millhorn, and his three grandchildren Olive, Finnley, and Trenton. Derek enjoyed spending time with family and friends, going fishing, doing projects, and rooting for his favorite sports teams. Go Hawks! Derek was a kindhearted and proud man who left a positive impact on many. He did not deserve the battles he faced with his health. He put up quite a fight against the odds of diabetes, kidney disease, and cancer. Now, may he rest in peace and in loving memory. His memorial service will be held at 2 pm on Friday, July 2nd at Ione Baptist Church (124 Main St Ione, WA 99139). The service will be followed by a reception held at Ione Waterfront Park. Family and friends are welcome, and we ask you to wear your Seahawks or Mariners gear and bring along a cherished memory of Derek. A special thank you to all who were a part of his care team.
