I had the pleasure of working with Aurora at the Coleman Company for three years. It was a blast working with her because she made us laugh all day!!! I’m so sorry to have missed the services. I did not see them in the newspaper & it didn’t dawn on me to search the funeral homes. She was a true friend!!! Condolences to the family!
They are next week 17&18
