Brian Young Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
He grew up in Lathrup Village, where he made many close friends and lasting memories.
In September 1980, he married Gail, the love of his life. Meeting her was the greatest joy he ever knew, and together they spent years camping, celebrating with friends, and enjoying each other's company. Gail passed away in 2007, and Brian carried her memory with him always.
Brian had a special love for classic cars, especially his gold '78 Trans Am, which was one of his greatest prides. He had a need for speed, a love of rock and roll, and a deep appreciation for sunsets at the lake.
He was the father of Nicole (Eric) and Brandon (Stefany), and grandfather of Boston, Mason, Avery, and Charlotte. Those who knew Brian will remember his easygoing nature and the way he brought people together.
Brian leaves this world to join his beloved wife, Gail, and his parents, Lazelle and Bruce.
May he rest in peace, reunited with those he loved most.
