A graduate student at Lewis & Clark College has died of complications from the Swine Flu.

Kris Kerstiens, 25, was getting his Master of Arts degree in teaching.

His parents say he first started getting sick a few weeks ago before dying at 2:40 a.m. Oct. 31.

Friends have set up a memorial on Facebook to remember Kerstiens, who his parents describe as "vibrant."

Thinking of you often Kris, and wishing we all had more time with you.
