Our condolences to the entire Young family on the passing of your father/grandfather. He was a wonderful, caring neighbor that everyone knew and loved, even the dogs who received a treat from his pocket as he passed them on the trails. We loved when he came over and sat down by the lake and stopped in for a visit. His passing is sad for us, but the Lord called him home when he so much wanted to be with his Nan. May he rest in peace, until we meet again.

I will keep the memory of Mr. Young in my heart. He was a kind and caring gentleman. I spent many,many hours on the lacrosse field at Shawnee watching him interact with the girls. Always with Nan sitting in a lawn chair on the sidelines. Rest in piece. I will keep the family in my prayers.May God bless you.
