Kennedy Jo Young was born on April 17, 2025 to Kelsey and Ethan Young in Omaha NE. On August 10, 2025 Kennedy Jo was baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ with her loving family by her side. While wrapped in her parent's loving arms Kennedy Jo went to be with Lord Jesus Christ on August 15, 2025 in Omaha NE.

During her four beautiful months on this earth, Kennedy Jo brought endless joy with her sweet smiles, bright eyes, and the way she always loved to snuggle close. She taught us about pure love and the preciousness of every moment.

She is deeply loved and will be forever missed by her parents, Kelsey and Ethan Young of Albion NE , her grandparents Sharon Alder of Albion, Kenny and Amy Young of Albion, and Shannon Alder of Atkinson; Great Grandparents Rodger Kaup of Bassett, Gene and Vivian Young of Albion, George and Patricia Christo of Albion, and Randy Alder of Newman Grove, NE; God Parents Ty and Bethany Jackson of Bassett. Along with many Great Aunts and Uncles, cousins and everyone who fell in love with her.

Kennedy Jo is preceded in death by Great Grandma's Sandra Kaup and Connie Alder.

Though her time here was short, Kennedy Jo's light will forever shine in our hearts. We believe she is resting safely in the arms of Jesus Christ. We will hold her in our hearts until we can hold her again in heaven.

A celebration of life Graveside Memorial Service for Kennedy Jo Young will be held at St. Joseph's Catholic Cemetery in Atkinson, NE on Monday August 18, 2025 at 10:00 a.m.
