I had the privilege being JaQuez's nurse for a brief time. He made such an impact on me as a person. We talked a lot about life and I was incredibly moved by his strength and determination. I feel so honored to have met him and the love he left in my heart. Never forgotten. Heaven gained the most special ANGEL.
