Aurora graduated from the Hairdressing School of Cambridge in 1992. She loved to cook and entertain. No matter when you would visit she would always have something cooked up for her guests. She was the life of the party and always had a big smile from ear to ear. She was a very hands on person and would talk to anyone and everyone. Aurora lived a full life as a wonderful mother, homemaker, and hairdresser along with some time working in the manufacturing sector. She loved traveling with her husband, children and grandchildren whenever she had the opportunity. More than anything, she loved her family and she will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.
