Velosia Kibe Obituary
1950-2016
On December 6, 2016 Pastor Velosia Ann Kibe made her transition from earth to heaven. She served The Windsor Village Church Family as Associate Pastor from June of 1997 until her death. For more than 3 decades, she served several churches and people in need—especially children. In the last decade, the true joy of her ministry has been The Kingdom Builders' Center Kenya project. Along with her husband, Daniel, and a host of Kingdom minded volunteers, Pastor Kibe oversaw the development and construction of a home and safe haven for orphans. She will be missed. She survived by her husband Daniel Kibe, sons Evan and Michael Ledet, daughters Nicole and Celia Ledet, and grandsons Evan Jr and Jason Ledet.

Pastor Kibe was my mentor, anchor and confidant. There is a deep void and heart wrenching sadness knowing that she is gone. The world has truly lost one of the greatest advocates for Christ.

Pastor Kibe was a great preacher. Her messages could resonate with anyone in the sanctuary. Her honesty and caring spirit touched me and I will never forget her. My prayers are with the Kibe and Ledet families.

I am so very sorry to hear about the passing of PASTOR Kibe. She was a woman of true ELEGANCE!! Pastor Kibe was my ex-husband and I Pastor who married us years ago and although not together now, whenever I went to her for martial guidance she would always encourage me. She will always have a special place in my heart. Rest with the angels Pastor/Sister Kibe...job...
Well Done!!!!!

A beautiful kind soul has entered into God's Rest and Peace. She needs no prayers now - she has life at its best. We will be praying for your family, and I just thank God for the early years of my ministry when we would occasionally talk, and always encourage me to continue the walk. Thank God for Velosia Kibe!

My sister, it is difficult to imagine your not being here. Your presence among God's people was joyful and fruitful. You have been a good friend since we were toddlers and every thought of you brings a smile to my thoughts of you. I will miss you, but know that you are in the care of our heavenly Father. Rest is yours now. Much love to you.
