Obituary of Constance Guerra

Guerra, Constance – on Aug. 5, 2022, age 90, of Bayville, NY. Connie was a very outgoing, friendly, adventurous, and vibrant woman who loved life. She prided herself on always learning. Later in life, while working full-time, she completed a four year liberal arts degree.  A fellow student asked, “What took so long?” Connie answered, “Three kids and a full time job!”  Even after retirement, learning was a priority. She remained an avid reader, reading the Sunday Times from cover to cover, and she frequented both museums and cultural exhibits.  With her love for travel, she introduced  her children to many different cultures.  In her later years, Connie continued to travel on her own, forming new friendships and bringing back and sharing stories  of her exciting adventures to family and friends.
