Ernesto Ochoa remembers creating elaborate ofrendas for Day of the Dead, a national holiday in Mexico, and the large celebrations in his home state of Michoacan. He’s carried that tradition to his adopted hometown of Aurora by creating colorful, eye-catching ofrendas, or altars, featured at Fox Valley Mall and at Aurora Catrinas, an area featuring Mexican import items inside his Sergio Furniture store at 36 W. Downer Place in downtown Aurora.
“I think it’s a beautiful concept.” Ernesto Ochoa has owned Sergio Furniture for about 30 years. In 2015, the family started bringing things back from Mexico and decided to open a section at the store which they call Aurora Cantrinas to sell the items, Alicia Ochoa said. Ernesto Ochoa carries items that are used in a traditional ofrenda, or altar, to the dead at Aurora Catrinas, an area featuring Mexican import items inside his Sergio Furniture store at 36 W. Downer Place in downtown Aurora.
