APOPKA, FL — A wave of grief has swept across the Apopka community as friends and family mourn the untimely passing of Ki’anna Bee, lovingly known to many as “Bubble Bee.” A devoted daughter, sister, and cherished friend, Ki’anna’s light was one that burned brightly—even in the darkest of times. Her passing has left a hole in the hearts of those who loved her, but her memory remains a source of strength, love, and unshakable inspiration.
Born and raised in Apopka, Ki’anna was known for her fierce loyalty, soft-spoken grace, and the way she poured her heart into every relationship she had. Those close to her say she lived with intention and fought with unwavering faith through life’s challenges. Her nickname “Bubble Bee” perfectly captured her spirit—gentle and sweet, yet strong and determined in all she faced.
In a powerful and emotional tribute, one loved one shared:
“To you, my sister, I say I will miss you even after my name is called. I thank you for fighting a good fight, but it’s time to rest, Bubble Bee. I love you. Until next time, Momma—until next time. Watch over me. Your beautiful daughter is in good hands, and I am on the back end, no doubt. God bless you, and I’ll see you again.”
These words reflect the deep emotional connection and bond shared between Ki’anna and her loved ones. Her passing is not just the loss of a person—it’s the loss of a protector, a peacemaker, and a radiant spirit who made others feel seen and safe.
Social media has since been flooded with photos, prayers, and memories. Friends described her as someone who never hesitated to show up for others, no matter the cost to herself. She was a light in a world that too often feels dim.
The Bee family is planning a memorial celebration to honor Ki’anna’s life, and details will be shared in the coming days. They invite all who knew and loved her to join in remembrance and reflection, and to continue carrying forward the love she gave so freely.
