Oksana Xian Colombo

Oksana Xian Colombo April 16, 2000 - September 19, 2025 It is with a heavy heart that we announce the sudden passing of our beautiful Oksana at the tender age of 25 years. She will be lovingly remembered by her father David and stepmom Sasha; her mother Amy; sister Ekaterina; grandmas Debby, Susan, and Janja; grandpa Frano; aunts Debbie Updyke (Victor), Stacy Colombo, Liz Colombo, Vesna (Zdravko) Grgic, Jasna (Joshua) Stacher, Sanja Rados (Phil); uncles Randy (Jennifer) Carpenter, Anto (Kate) Rados, Tom Gelles; and many cousins, friends, and other relatives. Oksana joins in heaven her beloved brother Tyler, along with other family members who have preceded her in death. Oksana was a thoughtful, kind, and affectionate soul with a deep love for her cats, especially Chubby; an animal and nature lover; a fervent believer in equality, diversity, and human rights; and a compassionate helper and voice of those in need. Oksana enjoyed traveling, scuba diving, scary movies, a wide range of good music, rollercoaster rides with her mom, playing chess and watching funny videos with her sister, and fishing and discussing life's complexities with her papa. We will forever miss her goofy and dry sense of humor, her soothing singing voice, her long hugs and constant I love yous, as well as her loving spirit, crooked smile, and beautiful soul. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you donate towards a Legacy Tree that will be planted and dedicated in Oksana's memory at a later time. The following link will be updated soon with her own page and a way to donate directly. https://www.clevelandmetroparks.com/support/donate/tribute-giving/legacy-tree
