SIMONE AUBRY Obituary

AUBRY, Simone Age 81, of Sudbury, died peacefully May 19, 2020 after a long decline in health. Born in New York City, she attended the Spence School, Sweet Briar College, and the Kathrine Gibbs Secretarial School in Boston. Her long career as an executive secretary included working at the Boston Museum of Science's Hayden Planetarium and the Lincoln-Sudbury High School. Her passion for life is reflected in her wide range of interests which included sky diving, scuba diving, photography, art history, jewelry making, archeology, astronomy, aerospace, and environmental issues. In addition, she was an avid gardener and loved birds, especially penguins. She travelled extensively, including several National Geographic trips, two of which were to Antarctica and one to the Arctic Circle. As a result of visiting so many natural habitats in the world, she became a frequent contributor to many wildlife and conservation organizations. In 2019, in celebration of Simone's 80th birthday, The Simone Aubry Center of Excellence for Children ([email protected]) was formed in Washington, D.C. to share some of her lifelong interests of the natural world with inner city children and their families. Simone will be dearly missed by her wide circle of friends. She is survived by her sister, Anne Elise Aubry. Services will be private. Arr. by Magni FH, NEWTON.

I met Simone at the Orange Parachute Center when I was a young Marine and a budding Sky Diver. She was a good friend, and visited me several years later when I was at the U.S. Naval Academy. I last contacted her about 10 years ago, and she told me of climbing on the cable supports of the Golden Gate Bridge with some friends! I wish I had been better at staying in contact. She lived an active and caring life.

There are so many wonderful memories with Simone beginning when we were about 12 years old at the Marhiasen family Camp Danmark in the Adirondacks and through our young years and up to the present.

Simone has been a great light in my life. Going back to 1975, she and my father spoke a great deal about building their first greenhouses. And then she was a friend of the family from there on. We attended many cookouts and such with her. In addition she was a great emotional support for me personally when I was a troubled teenager. Later, I owned a landscaping company, and was really happy to do some work around her yard with my crew. She was always so interesting with her love of cats, plants and discussing topics of all kinds. Greatly missed.
