Kelli Jean Nelson, 54, passed away Friday, February 11, 2022. She was born May 9, 1967, in Los Angeles, California.
At age three, she moved with her family to North Little Rock, Arkansas where she remained for the rest of her life. Kelli loved "spooky" things. Her favorite holiday was Halloween. When she was a little girl, she used to sing a song she wrote called "Halloween is Christmas" - this still makes the family smile. She loved the movie "The Nightmare Before Christmas" and even named her dog "Oogie" after "Oogie Boogie" from the film. She loved her sweet dog "Skrufy" very much. Kelli enjoyed shopping for bargains and yard sailing. She was bright, creative and had an infectious laugh and a beautiful smile.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Bill and Jean Ivy; infant brother, William O. Ivy and half-brother, Anthony Bates.
Survivors: husband, Stuart Cross; daughter, Amber Ivy Nelson; sister, Kandy Ivy; and niece, Sarah Heinemann.
