Patty, Bruce and family, so saddened to hear about your dad, we would see your dad and mom out to eat in previous years. Such a beautiful couple. We were out of town on Saturday, sorry we couldn't make it to the funeral home. Take care....

Please accept our condolences on the passing of Ned. He was a frequent copy customer when we owned Circle Printing. He always regaled us with stories of his work experiences - and we enjoyed. He was such a kind and caring man. May his soul soar free in heaven.

One of my favorite of the Youngs. I'll always remember the time on the boat with Ned and his family in the good old summer time. God be with you.

Ned was a very good and brilliant guy. He had a sharp mind for details. I recall chatting with him at one of the retiree dinners long after he had retired and he had an amazing recall for technical details that floored me!

My condolences to his family

I am deeply saddened to hear of Ned's passing.

He led such a long and interesting life and was a blessing to all he met. He was always eager to help anyone and always there and willing to take the time to share his vast experience.

It was 1975 when I first met Ned. I was impressed by his broad knowlege and his zeal to share it. He was as helpful as he could possibly be in my making a transition to Ross.

He will be greatly missed by all that knew him.

My most heartfelt condolences to Becky and the family. Ned was a great mentor to me early in my career and is still a legendary engineering figure at Abbott. What an amazing life this great man has had and what a positive impact he has had in his part of the world. We will truly never forget him.
