Velma was baptized as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses on June 6, 1969, with the desire to help as many as
possible learn about the bible and Jehovah’s purpose for mankind’s future. She also wanted to help
people physically and did so working in health care until she retired. Her favorite colors were purple and
turquoise, and you would most likely see her wearing one of these colors. She was a fine dresser and
made sure all the pieces matched.
As one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, Velma had a bible knowledge that made her believe that if she was to
fall asleep in death, that she would be remembered by Jehovah and his Son Jesus, and that they will
bring her back to life on a paradise earth.
Acts 24:15
And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is
going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.

I will never forget what you taught me of forgiveness and the doing of GODS will. You were always so pleasant, even in the midst of adversity. There’s so many things that we can hold on to that you were accustomed to. I will always cherish these precious jewels 💎 of wisdom.
May Almighty God be forever pleased with your beautiful life and spirit, and May he bless all of your family with a double portion of your spirit.
