Nelly was special, a brilliant human being, colleague, and friend.

To the family and especially his beloved daughters, I am sorry for your loss.
May his spirit and love live on in your hearts. 

I met Nelly, in 1984 on the TV Series of "Miami Vice". He was the Police Liaison, Tactical Advisor and  Coordinator on our project and many more to follow with Miami Dade County. He was brilliant,  a diplomatic, and pro active in getting the yes.  I was the location manager collaborating with Nelly to obtain permits for  car chases on Biscayne Boulevard, cigarette boat chases on the Bay,  to cars and boats exploding in the water. I loved working with Nelly.  

He was creative and logistical input was paramount. He also had a passion for his working a feature films. Michael Mann valued Nelly. 

He was also a friend, great empathy. 

Nelly,
 may you rest in peace now. Remember you were loved and respected by countess people.

My sincere condolences to Nelson's family, especially his daughters, who rode to elementary school with my kids.  He treated everyone regardless of rank with that "Nelly" smile and helped you out if you needed a hand. Going to miss my former neighbor and colleague.

My sincere condolences to the family. I would like to take a moment and say thank you for his service, dedication to the employees and always trying to find a more streamlined way through government bureaucracy. His leadership is missed. I am truly sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace.

Wishing the family peace and tranquility during this  time of sadness. Always knew Nellie to be a happy and insightful individual.  I know he’s looking down at all of us with that grin he always had and wishing the best for everyone.

I met Nelly in 1980. He was my first FTO. He was a super nice person and taught me a lot.  It was a friendship that lasted for many years.   I would run into him in the job and later in our shared neighborhood. He always had that smile on his face.  I was very saddened to hear of his passing. RIP my friend.  🙏🫡😔🚔🇺🇸🙏

Rest in peace Nelson. I will  definitely miss your weekly telephone calls.  Our long time friendship has meant a lot to me and my family.  Our thoughts and prayers are always with you. 🙏✝️

My sincere condolences to the immediate  and extended family. Though I did not work with Nelson his professional legacy of dedication in command is one that helped guide my own. May God bless his soul.

To Nellie, regardless of the rank he held that was his referred way of having his friends address him. Still remember my first off duty at the set of Miami Vice and Seeing Nellie doing his thing. God Bless you brother.

I have just learned that my very special friend has passed, to the family I send my prayers and condolences. He started as a loyal employee of Miami Dade County and finished as a great personal friend.  His voice will be missed, and I will not hear him say how proud he was when he spoke of his grandchildren.  He always keep track of me and shared their pictures, and I was honored by his sharing. Rest in  Peace.  Commissioner Natacha Seijas Millan (ret)

So sorry to hear about the passing of Nelson. We work together many years ago and he was such a good person. My deepest condolences 💐 to the Oramas family.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I will never forget the time we shared working together because it was impactful. Take your well deserved rest my friend and will see you on the other side LL🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

My deepest condolences to his family. I am very saddened by the news of his passing. I lost contact with Nelly over 5 years ago, which was unfortunate as we spoke often. I could never find him again. I don’t know why he retreated but he stopped returning calls. Regardless, I will always cherish the times we had together and all the laughter we shared. He was a character. He was a good friend, co-worker and a very giving person. Always very supportive of me and my family, especially my daughter and her acting dreams. He sure loved movies and we often discussed them. I had the honor of sometimes being invited to premieres and would meet directors and producers he knew. I even went with him to scouting missions for up coming movies like bad boys 2. I have missed him all these years and will miss him even more knowing we never reconnected. Rest in peace my friend. I’ll see you on the other side.

Saddened to hear of Nelson's passing.  We worked together at the Aviation Department and became fast friends. He loved his girls and his grands.  Condolenes to the family on your loss of an incredible man.

While being a Major in MDPD, he became Assistant Director of Operations here at MDAD Miami International Airport for which he created the Security and Safety Division, he was a pleasure to work with and for. May he Rest In Peace.

I remember “Uncle Nelly” as I called him. I must’ve been in sixth or seventh grade and I was preparing for my theatre competition that year. I was going to sing a solo and I very much wanted his opinion. He sat with me there, listening to me and helping me pick the perfect song for that year‘s competition. I won second place out of the whole state with that song. As I write this through tears, he will never be missed. Not by a longshot.  I will forever remember the bond we shared. I could keep going… And it’s been so long since I’d seen him last. I wish I knew that was our last time together. Cherish these moments. Even this one. Because it honors everything he IS. I miss him all the same, as I’m sure you all do. I am so sorry for his passing, but hopefully this will bring him peace and so unto the rest of you. Many blessings, love, and light. ❤️

Rest in peace Nelson. Thank you for all of the assistance and guidance you provided me during my career. Prayers and condolences to his family.🙏🏻🙏🏻.

Nelly, RIP my friend, keep the bench warm, so when it’s my time, we can once more ride together a 2 man.  Nelson was a real friend, never changed, had a big heart, a people person, and whenever he could help others, there he was, gratuitously.

Sincerest condolences for your loss.  Your family is certainly in my prayers during this difficult time.

My deepest condolences to Nelson’s family. I knew Chief Oramas from MDPD in the very early years of my career. He was always very supportive of the men and women that served under his command. He will be greatly missed.

Our deepest sympathies for your loss. He was truly one of a kind and they broke the mold after him.
