Grant "Bill" McCellan Flora, III's Obituary
Grant “Bill” McCellan Flora III, age 65 of Bentonville passed away on April 24, 2024, surrounded by his family and friends. He was born July 29th, 1958, in Chicago, Illinois. He was preceded in death by his parents, Grant McCellan II and Rosemary Kelly; two brothers Thomas Williams and Kenneth Williams.
He is survived by his wife Rosana Flora and their daughter Gabriela Flora of Bentonville and his daughter Nicole Sharp and her husband Stephen of Chicago; a brother Patrick Williams; four sisters Mildred Laurin, Marion Laverde, Kathleen Flora, and Kelly Flora; a granddaughter Alyssa Kurina and a great granddaughter Areli Kurina.
Bill had a great love for food, music, and travel. We will all certainly miss seeing “Gabby’s afternoon snack” photos and his Italian beef sandwiches, pizza and Christmas cookies. Bill learned to play the guitar at 7 years old and played several other instruments over the years. He combined these two loves with travel and showed the world to Rosana and Gabby.
A memorial will be held at 2:00 pm Saturday April 27, 2024, at Nelson-Berna Funeral Home Rogers, Arkansas.
