Dora Lopez Aguiar

Dora Loved to sing, dance and be the life of the party. She was often described by her grandchildren as the "fun grandma" with her jokes and big smile. Even after working two jobs, she always found time to spend with her grandchildren. Their fondest memories are the trips to the beach and the club houses she built for them.

Dora worked for BISD for 25 years while also working at Sam's Club for 10 years. She worked hard to provide for her family and instilled her work ethics upon her children. They often referred to her as a "strong independent woman".

Mom we will miss you dearly and cherish the memories you left behind.
