Corporal Jerry Hughes with Vestavia Hills PD has his wife, daughter and others helping get the word out about his search, but he also has support from another family; his fellow officers.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - One Vestavia Hills police officer is on a quest to find a kidney donor, and he’s got a lot of support in his journey for a donor.
Jerry Hughes-Karrh has been with the Vestavia Hills Police Department for five years. He’s been in law enforcement for 20, and for the last two years, he’s been searching for a kidney donor after being diagnosed with renal failure. In fact, Vestavia Hills PD did the opposite, Hughes-Karrh says they’ve done anything and everything to accommodate him as he searches for a match. For a“Chief Rary passed away last month, and one of the things he instilled in us many years ago is that we are a family and a family first, and we take care of our own police officers and their extended family and that’s one of the legacies he’s left behind for us,” says Captain Keith Ware.
