Kim Dennard-Colón, beloved wife, devoted mother, proud grandmother, dedicated public servant, and cherished member of the Cleveland community, departed this life peacefully on April 14, 2026, at the age of 64.
Born on October 26, 1961, in Cleveland, Ohio, Kim was the daughter of the late James C. Dennard and Roberta F. Dennard. She was also preceded in death by her brother, James D. Dennard.
Kim received her early education in Cleveland and graduated from John Adams High School in 1979. She continued her education at Cleveland State University, where she studied Computer Science and later earned her Bachelor’s Degree. Her education laid the foundation for a remarkable career of service. For 28 years, Kim worked faithfully for the City of Cleveland, where she built a respected career as a corrections officer, known for her professionalism, strength, and compassion.
At a young age, Kim accepted Christ as her Savior, and her faith remained an enduring part of her life.
In 1996, Kim met the love of her life, Christopher Colón Sr., and the two were united in marriage in October 2001. Together they built a loving blended family rooted in devotion and support.
Kim leaves to cherish her memory her loving husband, Christopher Colón Sr.; her sons, Jamal West and Jarrell Brown; her children through marriage, Evelyn Buchanan, Lisa Adams, Jessica Colón, Christopher Colón Jr., and Selena Colón; her sister, Karen Dennard; 16 grandchildren; her beloved fur baby, Milo; and a host of nieces, one nephew, relatives, and dear friends.
Kim will be remembered for her quiet strength, unwavering love for family, dedication to public service, and the warmth she extended to everyone she encountered. Her legacy of love, faith, and commitment will live on in all who knew and loved her.
