On Thursday, April 14th, the angels chose Veronica to begin her eternal rest. She went peacefully at 11:22 a.m. at Womack Army Medical Center on Fort Bragg in Fayetteville, North Carolina.

At a young age Veronica accepted Christ and joined Bethel Baptist Church in White Plains, New York. In later years she moved her membership to the Word of God Ministry under the leadership of Apostle Juan. P. Bautista. She was devoted to her church and was a faithful member even after health began to fail.

Veronica attended White Plains High School, but graduated from Sleepy Hollow High in Tarrytown, New York. After graduating she attended the State University of New York in Plattsburgh, NY, where she received her Bachelor’s degree. She later joined the United States Air Force and served her country for 12 years. While stationed in New Mexico and raising her son, Tarell, she attended Wayland Baptist University in Plainview, Texas. Upon completion, she received her master’s degree in business administration (MBA).
