Jayvon Ghim

Jayvon Ghim was a 21-year-old Baltimore resident whose life ended on June 27, 2021. Public records of the event are limited, but local reporting and public notices identify Jayvon by name and age and place his death in the Penn North area of West Baltimore, near the 2200 block of McCulloh Street.

Though few personal details are available in the public record, Jayvon’s inclusion on community memorial lists and local reporting shows he was known to people who keep the names of those lost to violence close — a recognition that he mattered to family, neighbors, and others who remember the city’s fallen. He was part of a generation of young Baltimoreans whose lives and potential were woven into families and neighborhoods across the city.

Because no family-published obituary or funeral-home notice matching his name and the exact date of death was found in public archives, many of Jayvon’s personal relationships, hopes, and daily life remain private. That lack of public detail should not be read as lack of worth: every life has depth beyond what is posted online. This page honors Jayvon as a person first — not as a statistic — and acknowledges the loss felt by those who knew him.

If you knew Jayvon personally and would like to share a memory, photograph, or correction so his full story can be respectfully told, adding family-authorized remembrances helps ensure his life — not only his death — is remembered.
