Derrell Mathis
June 9, 1935 — January 11, 2022
Derrell Clayton Mathis, Jr., of South Elgin, died January 11, 2022. Derrell owned Ace Hardware for over 30 years as he was of the guy who could fix just about everything. Later, he opened an automotive repair shop with his son as cars were always his hobby.
He was a man of few words, but everyone always loved him. Derrell was the first person to help when someone was in need. He never judged and believed in giving everyone a second chance.
Over the last few years, Derrell's love was western movies and eating. In lieu of a service, he requested a luncheon at later date to celebrate his life.
Derrell was the beloved husband of Margaret for 55 years; loving father of Bret (Dana Cortese) Mathis and Brooke (Adam) Rzeppa; proud grandfather of Kenzie Rzeppa.
