Stella Louise Flores, 70, of Flagstaff, Arizona was a beloved mother, sister, grandmother, and aunt who celebrated life to the fullest. Her health rapidly declined and she passed the morning of February 28, 2024, in Phoenix, Arizona. She was surrounded by her loving family in her final days before the "Good Angels" guided her to Heaven.

She is survived by her children Bobby and Tracy Bejarano, and her grandchildren Orion, Raven, Cristian, and Elena.

Daughter of Antonio and Charlotte Flores. Stella loved her siblings dearly, sisters Maria, Dolores, Mary Frances, and brothers Pete, Sal, and Jim. "StellaMay" was an adoring auntie and great-auntie to many, her presence brought joy and warmth to their lives.

Born and raised in Flagstaff, Arizona, she and her family moved to Northern California in 1966. There she met and fell in love with Vicente Bejarano with whom she had her two children. After they separated, she moved to Long Beach, CA for a fresh start. She met Alan Robbins, the love of her life. He introduced her to a love of fishing and sailing the Pacific Ocean aboard the Outer Limits, a sport fishing boat based in San Pedro, CA. He was a deck hand and she cooked in the galley serving delicious food while taking advantage of the fishing opportunities. Those years were some of the happiest of her life.

After Alan passed, she returned home, to Flagstaff, to live amongst her extended family and friends. Stella worked as a custodian at Northern Arizona University. She loved family gatherings and being surrounded by music, dancing, and laughter.  Her kindness, heart, and soul were profound, she had a way of making you feel as if you had known one another for years and her love was unconditional. There will always be a special place in all of our hearts where we will hold her close and cherish the memories. May she rest in peace and watch over us until we meet again.
