WEBSTER – Frederick W. Young, 89, passed away peacefully at the Webster Manor Rehabilitation & Health Care Center on March 3rd, 2026.

Frederick is deeply cherished by his beloved wife of 70 years, Carol A. (Krukowski) Young. He is also survived by his loving children: Michael and Gail (Barbieri) Young of Sturbridge, Mark and Ann (Beauregard) Young of Westport, Sharon Beaudry of Sturbridge, and Debra Taylor and her husband Doug of Longmeadow. His legacy continues through his grandchildren: Erica Caouette, Pam Beaudry, Jonathan Young, Joseph Young, Max Taylor, Zachary Taylor, Samuel Young, and Emma Young, along with his great-grandchildren: Teagan, Leeanna, and Carson Caouette, Lily, Harry, Rita, and Ruby Taylor, and Kenna, Mairin, Adelina, and Donovan Young. He is also survived by his sister, Doris Plummer, and her husband Arthur.

Frederick was predeceased by his sister Shirley Latendress and his brothers, Malcolm and Jeff Young.

Born on July 15th, 1936, in Worcester, Massachusetts, to the late Malcolm and Abby (Jeffrey) Young, Frederick spent his formative years in Auburn, MA. He completed his bachelor's degree at Clark University in Worcester.

Frederick's professional journey was diverse; he worked at Guaranty Bank in Worcester, Capitol Bank in Boston, Key Loc Modular Homes, and served as Comptroller at the Sheraton Sturbridge. His passion for the culinary arts led him to manage various restaurants, including a chef position at Cedar Street Restaurant, and he took great pride in running the Cohasse Country Club Restaurant in Southbridge and Dicken's Tavern, in Sturbridge. Additionally, Frederick owned and operated the Lodge on the Lake in Holland, where he created many cherished memories.

In his free time, Frederick still loved to cook outside of his work in restaurants. He also loved sports, partaking in golf as a young man, as well as watching football and baseball on television. Frederick adored traveling with his beloved wife, Carol, and every January the two would embark on a travel adventure, whether in the form of a cruise, or spending time on the Cape.

Services for Frederick will be held privately, as per the family's wishes, and are under the care of the Belanger Bullard Funeral Home, 51 Marcy Street, Southbridge, MA.

An online guestbook and tribute video will be available at www.BelangerFuneralHome.com.
