Derek Dirsus

February 11, 1965 - February 19, 2022

Derek Fraser Dirsus passed away on Saturday, February 19 at the age of 57 at the Gwinnett Medical Center in Lawrenceville, Georgia. He leaves behind his loving wife of 26 years, Colleen and son Sean, 22 years old, his sister Diane Carol Dirsus, and his sister Erika Sarah Dirsus and her husband Roderick Cairns. He was preceded in death by his parents Erich Alfred and Sarah Sliman Dirsus. He graduated from the University of Toronto in Ontario, Canada with a Chemical Engineering degree and earned a Professional Engineering license, indicative of the profession's highest standard of competence and assurance of quality. Derek was a dedicated, hardworking employee of Zurich Insurance for over 20 years working primarily as a risk analyst. Derek loved to travel, he loved his electronic games and gadgets, and there was never a computer issue or technical difficulty that he could not resolve. He was an accomplished grill master on his Oklahoma Joe smoker, always providing friends and family with delicious treats. He was a wonderful husband, father, brother, son, uncle, and friend. He will be very sorely missed. “Whenever I am seen smiling, the world will know it’s because I am remembering you.” Funeral services for Derek will be held at the Tim Stewart Funeral Home in Lawrenceville, Georgia on Friday, February 25. There will be a visitation from 12-2pm followed by a service at 2pm. Tim Stewart Funeral Home, 300 Simonton Road SW, Lawrenceville, Georgia 30046. 770-962-3100.
