I met Jerkris only once. He sold me a stuffed animal in the gift shop at ACMC. I am a travel nurse from Utah. While waiting for the bus I went to browse for a few minutes. Jerkris and I viisited for about 15 minutes. I have a son, Zachary, the same age as Jerkis, also going into Radiology Technology. I forgot my credit card, so Jerkris hid the stuffed blue, giraffe in a closet until I could come back to buy it. The giraffe was a gift for my Zachary’s baby girl, Andie. Jerkris had an infectious smile, cheeful personality, and even though I only knew him for 15 minutes, he changed my life. I will always remember him everytime I see my granddaughter Andie holding that fluffy, soft, little blue giraffe. My prayers and heartfelt sorrow are with his loved ones…
