William Robert Flaska “Flash”, 76, of Seminole, passed away May 14, 2021 at Suncoast Hospice Care Center North Pinellas. Born July 24, 1944 and raised in Cicero, IL, where he attended Morton East High School, Flash raised his family in a Northwest suburb of Chicago, Mt.

After his working years he moved to Florida after his children were grown.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Dorene Flaska; his parents William Sr. and Catherine Flaska; and his brother Robert “Bob” Flaska.

William joined the United States Army after graduating High School and was a Vietnam veteran. Flash loved chess, bowling, reading, sports trivia and watching sports; he absolutely LOVED the Chicago Cubs!
