On the morning of June 13, 2024, Aurora (Dora) Cantara passed away at home at the age of 60.
Dora was born in Saginaw, Michigan to Mario and Jennie Martinez though she spent most of her life in Biddeford Maine. She worked as a factory worker, but her last six years she spent her time being a " Memere " to her grandchildren.
Dora enjoyed her family very much. She had a contagious smile and a funny sense of humor. She was very nurturing and always friendly to everyone!! Tho she was never shy to speak her mind but that was Dora.. She also had a laugh that was one of a kind and something you could never forget. She was all about having a good time type of woman and most of us have known her for her wild side, she loved animals and especially her boy buddy that was her dog.., but most of all she loved being with her grandkids. They meant the world to her!! She will be deeply missed and never forgotten!!
Dora is survived by Mario and Jennie Martinez 7 siblings and her 3 children, Jacob, Regina, and Jose and 7 grandchildren, Krystalyn,Sophia,Jace,Brayden,Gabriella,Mila, and Baby Mateo!
A public celebration of life will be held at 2pm - 5pm Biddeford Eagles Aerie 804 on July 15, 2024 at 57 Birch St., Biddeford, ME 04005.
