Nilda I. Velez was born on August 21st, 1937 and took her last breath on September 24th, 2022 at the age of 85, surrounded by loved ones. Born in Puerto Rico to parents, Santiago Velez and Eugenia Diaz. Nilda has two living siblings, Rose and Santiago. She lived in Elizabeth, NJ until the time of her passing. Left behind are her two children, Richard Jimenez and Elizabeth Green. Her grandchildren, Jasmine Green, Jenell Green, Gerald Green III and Issac Jimenez. And her great-grandchildren, Xavius and Josias Green.
Along with being a wonderful mother and grandmother, she was the family’s pillar. She worked at US Trust until her retirement that allowed her to surround herself with family and devote her time in serving the Lord. Nilda was always there when you needed her which also led to her sharing her ministry in missionary outreaches in other countries. She was loved and adored by many. An inspiration to those closest to her. She will forever be missed but never forgotten.
