Dong Un Kim Quilaton ….


Dong Un Kim Quilaton 1938-2024 Dong Un Kim Quilaton, age 86, passed away peacefully on May 2, 2024, at her Leisure World residence, surrounded by her loving family and friends. Kim was born to parents Jae Keun Kim and Aeng Mo Chung in Seoul, South Korea on Feb. 2, 1938. She relocated to the United States with her husband and five children in 1973, planting their roots in Southern California. Kim was a business owner, running her own salon, Kimberly’s Nails, from 1984-1991 alongside her daughter. She was devoted to her family, all of whom she held dear. Kim’s deep love for her family was rivaled only by her passion for travel. She traveled the world, including to parts of Asia, Europe and all 50 states of America. She would return home with a spoon, magnet or matchbox to commemorate each of her visits to various countries, all proudly displayed in her home. She is reunited in eternal peace with her beloved husband of 60 years, Dioscoro B. Quilaton Sr., with whom she shared countless cherished moments. Kim is survived by her children and their spouses Dioselene (David), Dioscoro Jr. (Mira), Danilo Sr. (Norma), John Sr. (Judith), and Young (Mare); grandchildren Danilo Jr., Kimberly, Jewel, Nicole, John Jr., Dioscoro III, and Natalie; and great-grandchildren Danilo III and Spencer. Kim will be fondly remembered and deeply missed. May her memory be a source of comfort to all who mourn the loss of a most devoted mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.
