Timothy Young Obituary

Young, Timothy T. Clan Young is mourning the loss of our patriarch, Timothy Thomas Young of Milwaukee, WI who passed away the evening of Monday April 4th. Tim grew up right here on the east side of Milwaukee, and during his teen years could be found at his old stomping grounds from the Big Boy on North Avenue to the Red Barn on Oakland or the Pig & Whistle on Capitol Drive. Tim began his high school career at Messmer Catholic in 1964 and was a graduate of Riverside High School in 1968. On February 26, 1972 he married his first love, Carol Donley at St. John Vianney in Brookfield, WI. Recently retired in 2015, Tim lead a successful management career that spanned across major area employers including Advanced Transportation, JDC Logistics, and Chrysler. In his passing we have lost a Father, a Husband, a Grandfather, a Brother, an Uncle, a Son, a Community Leader and a Loyal Friend. Tim was known to many as President, St. Andrews Society of the City of Milwaukee; Vice President, Clan Young International; Member of Wisconsin Scottish, Inc.; and as a Master Mason. With all of Tim's Scottish society accomplishments and acquired titles, he will be most remembered for his kindness and compassion to friends and family in times of need. Whether he was working with his son or daughter's on a home project, cracking jokes and spreading his sense of humor to uplift a friend, or helping his brothers, sisters, nieces & nephews, Tim always made himself available. His zest for life was contagious and he truly enjoyed being in a position to help, never turning away an opportunity to contribute to his friends, family & his community. Tim is preceded in death by his father William Russell Young, Sr., mother Crescentia Gebhardt, brother Roger Anthony Young, Sister Claire Crescentia Young, and brother William Russell Young, Jr. He will forever be loved and remembered by his wife Carol Young, Jacob Young & Robin Morgan of Milwaukee, WI, Sara & Roger Marcell, Jr. of Beltsville, MD and Courtney & James Duncan of White Hall, MD., who called him Father.

I am deeply saddened to hear of Tim's passing. Tim was my manager at JDC Logistics for 7 years. He was a dear friend and mentor. I am grateful for his guidance and encouragement, which has had a profound impact on my career. I will always remember Tim for his intelligence and sharp wit. He was full of life and had a great sense of humor. These qualities earned him enormous respect among all who worked with him.

My sympathies and best wishes go out to Tim's family at this difficult time. He will be greatly missed.

I've met Tim quite a few times over the years at highland games and other events. He always had a quick wit,easy smile and was so great to talk to. I'm sad that I'll no longer see one of my very favorites at the Games, IrishFest or other events.
Hugs to his Clan Young family that will be missing him every day.

I was saddened to hear of Tim's passing. He was always insightful and seemed to add a certain wisdom to the common conversation. Reflecting on the several years I had the pleasure of working with Tim, he was always an asset to the task at hand, as well as the bigger cause. Tim was intelligent, trustworthy, loyal, honest, and kind hearted. He exhibited class and respect, and lead by example. Undoubtedly, he will be missed by those fortunate enough to know him. While gone, he is remebered, as a genuinely good man. And may that offer his family some peace, in their grief.

There are not enough good men in the world. I am so sorry that we lost one. But the world's loss is nothing compared to yours and you have my blessings and sincere condolence.

Our hearts are heavy at the news of Tim's passing. We will miss him at Highland Games. Burns Banquets, parades, trap shooting and sharing his own special version of Scottish Gemütlichkeit: true hospitality.

I have particularly fond memories of Tim chatting with kids when they would come by the tent at a highland games. He was so eager to share info with the kids that I think he almost enjoyed it more than they did!

Our world is a little dimmer for the loss of this wonderful man.

Our deepest sympathies,
Julie & Lyle Maryniak
