Jerrick was a blackjack dealer at the Inn of the Mountain Gods. He was known for always lending a helping hand and greeted everyone he met with warmth, making friends easily through his talkative and joking personality. Jerrick had a love for the outdoors, especially with his kids.

He is preceded in death by several beloved family members, including his grandpa Kee Herrera, grandmas Bessie Jim and Tom Jim Jr, his brother Vernan Jim, and his aunt and uncle, Reanna Jim and Benson Jim, along with other aunts, uncles, and cousins.
He will be remembered for his joyful spirit, love for playing video games, and the kindness he shared with others.
