Aurelia Popescu Obituary
Aurelia loved her family, her church, as well as all of her dear friends and her Bishon dogs. She enjoyed making her famous nut rolls (secret Ree recipe on DVD) and enjoyed an occasional tall rum & coke with light ice along with those Hershey's chocolates (hidden all over the house). She also enjoyed her daily trips to Frys, Target, Costco and the bank as well as IHOP for her pancakes and syrup. Her smile will be greatly missed by everyone that knew her.
