Lenora Aubin

Nora is survived by her children, David (Sandy), Mary, Julie Blum (Kelly), and Randy (Janice). Grandchildren: Alison, Zachary, Isaac, and Sarah. Great-grandchildren: Oliver, Olivia, Lanora (Nora), Ayla, and Luke.

She is preceded in death by parents Enos and Julia Curtis, brother Winfield Curtis, and granddaughter Stephanie Aubin.

Nora was born on March 27, 1926, in Sacramento, California to Enos and Julia Curtis. She attended neighborhood schools at El Dorado Elementary School and Kit Carson Middle School, and graduated from Sacramento High School in 1944.

After finishing school, she worked as a medical secretary until 1951, when she married Albert Aubin and became a stay-at-home wife and a mother for her growing family. When her husband started his own business in 1953, she then took on the job of administrative duties for their family business, along with her duties as a busy wife and mother.

Nora was actively involved in her children’s lives, becoming a den mother for her boy scout sons, and a leader for girl scout daughters. She made sure her children learned how to care for a home, to sew and cook, and saw that they had music and dance lessons, as well as having numerous fun-filled adventures and activities as they grew up.

Nora enjoyed playing the piano, and as an accomplished pianist she was trained in classical music along with popular music. She and her husband spent many hours playing a variety of songs together. She loved dogs, cats, babies, and her home, spending hours outdoors creating beautiful gardens surrounding the family home.

She was a supportive wife and devoted mother, who encouraged her family to work hard, pursue their goals, and to enjoy life. She was kind, gentle, and compassionate, and was dearly loved by all her family and friends.

Visitation and funeral will be at 11:00 am on Wednesday, July 8, 2026, at Nicoletti, Culjis & Herberger, with a reception to follow.
