Hector Felipe Flores Apodaca

June 22, 1953 — July 12, 2024

Lakewood, CO

We bid farewell to Hector Felipe Flores, who walked the stairway to heaven on,

Friday, July 12, 2024, at the age of 71. Hector was born on June 22, 1953 in

Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico. Hector moved to Denver around 1988 to build a

better future for his family. Hector was married for 39 years and had two children.

He was a very loving and great husband, father, and grandfather. He was one of

the friendliest people you ever met, and was very loved and appreciated by family,

fellow musician colleagues, and friends. He was a latin bassist for over 40 years

and had a diverse taste in music. Some of his favorite music genres were: rock

bands from the 70's and 80’s, cumbias, jazz, classical music, salsa, and latin

baladas. He will always be remembered for his passion for music, kind heart,

friendly personality, happy and funny spirit, and his dark sense of humor. He will

continue to live in our hearts, through every base beat, and all his favorite music.

He was predeceased by his parents; Felipe Flores-Maldonado and Ofelia

Flores-Apodaca. Hector is survived by his wife, Guillermina Flores, daughter, Erika

Flores, son, Hector Flores, four grandchildren, and two siblings.
