Marie Audrey Walters, age 88, passed away on March 2, 2019. She was a resident of Aurora, CO for 16 years and was formerly a resident of Pueblo, CO and Colorado Springs, CO.
She was a Telephone Operator with Mountain Bell, until they split, and she was then an Employee of AT&T as a Long-Distance Service Operator until she retired.

11 Mar 2019Aunt Marie was loving, generous and fun loving. She had a quick wit and could banter and joke with anyone who came to know her. She was loyal and devoted to her daughter, granddaughters, great granddaughters and her family. We are so sad to lose her and pray that she rests in peace. Tony and Donna
