Carlos B. Negron, age 71, of Jersey City; formerly of San Juan, Puerto Rico; entered into eternal rest surrounded by his loving family on Friday, May 10, 2024. Born on March 31,1953, Carlos moved to Brooklyn, New York with his parents and two younger sisters. The eldest of 11 children, he was a quiet and simple man who found joy in spending time with family. There, he met his wife Bertha and moved to Jersey City where he remained. He graduated from Hudson County Vocational High School and worked as a NJ Transit bus driver until his retirement in 2019. Carlos loved the Lord and enjoyed spending time in church and a Christian radio station. He also enjoyed playing the guitar, but his favorite pastime was spending time with his grandchildren whom he adored.
Surviving Carlos is his wife of 49 years, Bertha Negron, his 3 sons Carlos Negron, Jr. (Janet), John Valladares (Deborah) and Eber Valladares (Ellis), his beloved grandchildren Alyna, Jacob, Samuel and Luke Negron, Jonathan, Naomi and Alicia Valladares, great-granddaughter Solvej Negrin, siblings Alex, Ernesto, Pablo, Maria (Mendez), Lucy and Clara Negron along with a host of nieces, nephews and cousins.
