Curtis Young Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Mr. Curtis Young Jr. was a proud veteran of the United States Army, having served his country with honor and dedication. After his military service, he worked for many years as a truck driver and heavy equipment operator at Conex Concrete Company, where he became known for his hard work, reliability, and expertise.
In addition to his professional accomplishments, Mr. Curtis had a true passion for life. He was an avid bicycle rider. His mechanical skills were unparalleled if something needed fixing, he was the person to turn to. He could repair almost anything, and his resourcefulness and talent were a testament to his strong work ethic and hands-on approach to life.
Mr. Curtis will be remembered for his generosity, his willingness to lend a helping hand, and the many lives he touched with his warmth and kindness. He leaves behind a legacy of strength, perseverance, and a love for simple pleasures.
He is survived by his children: Demetra (Galvin) Rackins, Midville, GA, Curtis Young III and Romano Young Sr., both of Statesboro, GA; special niece, Felicia Johnson (Fredrick) Spells, Portal, GA; brother, Floyd Johnson, Atlanta, GA; 13 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren; special friend, Cheryl Edwards, and a host of other relatives and friends.
