Blakely Wayne Bibb

Wayne was a longtime member of Meadows Church of Christ on Dishman Road, previously Ridgewood Church of Christ in Beaumont, for 51 years. His strong Faith in God was evident in the life he lived.

He enjoyed spending time with his family, hunting, antiques, flowers, and gardening, and took great pride in his yard.

Wayne was a loving husband, dad, and Pops to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

He was a man of splendid behavior.

Wayne started Bibb’s Construction with his father in 1964 and took great pride in the company. Later, Bibb’s Construction became Century Trucking and Dirt Pit. Wayne valued the relationships built over the past 40 years. His relationship with his Mason Construction family was one not often witnessed in business. The people at Mason Construction became more than a business relationship—they became family.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Blakely and Alma Bibb, and his brother, Nathan Bibb.

Wayne is survived by his wife, Carolee Bibb; children, Baker Bibb and wife Anna, Stephanie Rutledge and husband John, Howdy Cloud, and Heith Cloud; grandchildren, Morgan Brown and husband Warren, Blakely Allen, Justin Bibb, Henley Cloud, Ava Rutledge, and Colton Rutledge; and great-grandchildren, Wyatt, Jaxon, Kye, and Ila, along with many nieces and nephews.
