She was a loving mother to her son Mark, a caring mother-in-law to Elizabeth, a gentle and kindhearted grandma to Andrew and Alexa, and a beloved family matriarch to so many during her time on this Earth.

Aurora was born in Brooklyn NY to her parents Luigi and Grace Sacripante, who had 4 other children at the time - her sister Mary, and her brothers Nicholas, Henry, and Mario. Aurora met the love of her life Carlo in Italy during a trip there with her parents. The two became pen pals, and after awhile their love for one another could wait no longer and they married in 1957. Aurora and Carlo spent the latter part of their lives in Coram, NY where they enjoyed their retirement by going to the Senior Center 3 times a week to play poker and laugh with friends until Carlo’s passing in 2019. Aurora loved to read mystery novels, do crossword puzzles, and watch tv shows like Jeopardy!, Wheel of Fortune, CSI, and Law and Order. She will be missed and remembered by all who knew and loved her. May her memory be eternal….
