I served with Nelson on the USS Hermitage (LSD-34).  Nelson and I were in charge of the crew's recreational photo lab.  Nelson knew a lot about the chemistry of photography and I learned from him.  He was a good shipmate, a good sailor and a respected member of the crew.

My condolences to the family.  May you find comfort and have good memories.

Nelson  and I worked together  in the Plain Cloths Unit of the Customs Patrol Division at JFK Airport back in 1978 ?
Nelson was a good guy, always willing to work extra hours & coming up with ideas on how to get the job done. He was a friend and loved his Family..          RIP    Tim Varian

To the Rolon Family,
I had the privilege of working with Nelson both as a U. S. Customs Patrol Officer and Special Agent. Nelson was friend to many. I considered Nelson a brother and friend. He is now sharing his kindness in heaven. He will be always in my thoughts and prayers. Rest in Peace brother. My deepest condolences to the entire Rolon family. 
Sincerely,
Rich Dallesandro.

Nelson was a friend and co-worker with me in U.S. Customs both as a Patrol Officer and as a Special Agent.  He was a good friend and an even better partner. He was smart and reliable and I trusted him with my life.  I wish him safe journey as he passes into eternity. 

Que Dios esté con él y le dé la bienvenida a su casa.

Uncle Nelson was the light of the Rolon family. And will continue to shine from up above. Uncle Nelaon always said I looked like Abuela Geno!   It always warmest my heart.

Mi más sentido pésame en estos momentos de dolor a la familia Rolon.  No hay palabras para describir a Nelson.  Su carisma, su vocación,  y su pasión serán recordadas siempre por sus amigos y compañeros.  Lo recordaré con mucho cariño Siempre. Descansa en paz amigo. “ It’s been a long day…and I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again”.   Vuela alto.
