Kelli E. Kendall

Kelli Kendall

Beloved Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Daughter and Friend

Kelli Kendall, 62, of Oakwood Ohio, passed away peacefully on October 17, 2025, at Miami Valley Hospital.

A devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, Kelli dedicated her life to creating a warm and loving home for her family. She was a homemaker in the truest sense—filling every room with light, laughter, and unconditional love. Her joy for life was infectious, and her presence could brighten even the darkest of days.

Kelli was preceded in death by her parents Kenneth and Khloe Welch of Oakwood, Oh.

Kelli is survived by her beloved husband, Geoffrey Kendall; her children: Dane Welch, Elise Amburn, Magdalene Arora and Davis Kendall; their spouses, Todd Amburn and Lakshya Arora; her grandchildren, Brantley Welch, Kye Amburn, and Ivy Amburn; and her siblings Karen Knife, Kevin Welch and Kerri Wilson.

She loved nothing more than being “Mom” and “

Mawmaw” and her greatest joy came from raising her children and embracing every moment spent with her family. Her grandchildren were the light of her life and she cherished every laugh, hug, and memory they shared.

Kelli had a gentle soul and a glowing aura. She was easygoing, kind, and adventurous—always up for a road trip, chasing the sun to the beach, or planning her next getaway. Her love of beauty and nature reflected her spirit: radiant, serene, and full of wonder.

To know Kelli was to love her. She had a natural gift for making others feel special, and her warmth made everyone feel like family. She was truly beautiful inside and out.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, November 2nd, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM at Homestead Golf Course, 5327 Worley Road, Tipp City, Ohio 45371.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to benefit her three grandchildren. Contributions may be made through the family’s GoFundMe page.
