In Sacramento on March 23, 2007. Beloved daughter of Geraldine Loper Jerrold Office Sr. Loving sister of Christopher Sanders II and Jerrold Office Jr. Aunt of Kaela Sanders. Granddaughter of Bobbie Scoby; eight uncles and five aunts and a host of other loving relatives and friends.



Jelisa Office, 16, was not the kind of teenager who went to parties much, her family members said. She was a straight-A student at Rio Linda High School with plans to go to college. Still, Office was feeling some new freedom Friday night. She had recently obtained her driver's license and bought a Buick Century with her wages from a fast-food job. On Friday, the high school junior drove to a house party in Del Paso Heights with some girlfriends. At about 11 p.m., as the party was breaking up, Office was sitting on her car in the 3600 block of Cypress Street when a hail of gunfire peppered the sidewalk. She was struck by two bullets and died at the scene, police said. Police said the shooting may have stemmed from an exchange of words outside the home earlier in the day. They described Office as an innocent bystander.
