Aurora C. Torres, 80, of Los Fresnos, Texas, passed away on Saturday, August 22, 2020.
She was born on October 16, 1939 in Harlingen, TX. She was the ninth of ten siblings. Aurora resided in Los Fresnos, TX for the entirety of her single life. When she met her husband, Luis Torres in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, they married and established their home also in the city of Los Fresnos, where they raised their two daughters, Noemi and Estela. Aurora dedicated herself to raising and caring for her family, as she was a housewife throughout her entire married life. She enjoyed crocheting, watching TV classics like the Andy Griffith Show and Bonanza, and caring for her outdoor plants. Something that brought Aurora great joy was spoiling and spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Nothing brought a bigger smile to her face, than seeing her little ones run around and enjoy the precious moments in life. She will be remembered as a loving and thoughtful wife, mother, and grandmother. Rest In Peace our sweet angel.
