Nelson C. Jorge 1963-2023

Nelson was born Aug. 22, 1963, in Youngstown, the son of Francisco Sr. and Julia Del-Valle Jorge.

He worked selling new and used tires. Nelson was a devout Catholic and was an altar server at St. Patrick Church for many years. He loved animals, especially his daughter and son-in-law’s dog Theodore; going to the ocean; and was an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan. He was known for his contagious sense of humor and generosity toward others. Nelson lived every day of his life for the present moment.

His loving wife, the former Kelly R. Massie Jorge, whom he married July 24, 1996, passed away May 28, 2016. Besides his wife, he was preceded in death by his mother.

Nelson will be remembered always lovingly by his daughter, Megan (Gregory) Barbush; grandchildren; two sisters, Dr. Rosemary Quinones and Gracie (Jack) Toth; three brothers, Edward Jorge, David (Gwen) Jorge and Michael Jorge; and many loving nieces and nephews.

Calling hours will be 11 a.m. to noon Saturday, Dec. 30, 2023, with a noon funeral service to follow at Rossi Brothers and Lellio Funeral Home, 4442 South Ave., Boardman.
