Maria Consolacion Guest

Connie was born in Manila, Philippines, to Vidal Morales and Benita Ferraria-Morales, the oldest of eleven children. She was raised on her father’s working farm in Guagua, Pampanga, was educated in Manila, and witnessed the Japanese invasion and occupation of the Philippines during World War II.

Connie met the love of her life, William “Bob” Guest, a young, strikingly handsome, airman stationed at Clark Air Force Base, and they were married in the parish in Guagua on January 1, 1954. Together, they returned and traveled around the United States and raised four boys. In 1973 they settled down in Aurora, CO, in their cherished home on Hanover Street. Connie loved to be around people and worked at the NCO Club on Lowry AFB, and the Tiki Kai and Holiday Inn on Colfax Avenue.

Connie was predeceased by her youngest son Sgt. Brian Keith Guest, US Army, in 1993, and her husband of 62 years, Bob in 2016. She is survived by her three sons, William David Guest of Lahaina, HI, Jerry Daniel Guest of Dayton, OH, and Richard Allen Guest of Redlands, CA. In her later years, her passion was her seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. She never missed the opportunity to celebrate a birthday, graduation, or wedding.
