Derek “Big Cat” Town graduated from JE in 1997. Wearing the number 76 jersey, Derek was a Key member of the 1996 Section III, Class B Championship football team. Derek went on to play football for SUNY Brockport before a 4 ½ year battel with Brain Cancer. Derek maintained a B average at CCC while undergoing numerous surgeries and treatments. His goal was to enroll in the elementary education program at SUNY Cortland. Derek was also the pro shop manager at Camillus Country Club and in his spare time loved to take his nephews golfing, hunting and fishing. He also spent time volunteering with his nephews’ sports teams and being a friend to all. Derek lost his battle with cancer on January 29th, 2003 just 3 days after his NFL team won the super bowl. His strength and positive attitude set the standards for all we do at the Derek Town Memorial Charity, Inc.
