Timothy Young Obituary

1952 ~ 2012
On Monday June 11, 2012, Timothy Gerald Young (59) passed away on a beautiful afternoon while walking his best friend and "grand-dog" Oliver. This was one of many outdoor activities Tim enjoyed, including skiing, golfing and jogging. Being born in Denver, Colorado, he was an avid Denver Broncos fan and also a Pittsburg Steelers fan since childhood. In his final days he frequently attended sporting events and concerts with his son and was proud to see his daughter be admitted to the Utah State Bar. When his time came Tim was comforted by Oliver, who faithfully stayed by his side.
Tim was preceded in death by his father, Gerald Young. He is survived by his mother, Bobbie; son, Cody; daughter, Kelsy (grand-dog Oliver); and brothers Tom and Ted and their families.
Friends may call at Larkin Mortuary (260 E. South Temple) Saturday June 16, 2012 at 11 a.m. with services for Tim at 1 p.m.

I still miss my brother Tim a lot. It is hard to believe it has been 7 years since he passed. Thanks to Legacy for keeping his memory alive.
He would now be a grandfather to Cody's son Jericho. He would have been a great grandfather which is one of the best things in life.
He was joined in heaven by our mother in 2015.

I only met Tim one time while we participated in a work project. But he left an impression with me as being a salt of the earth kind of guy. I just yesterday heard of his passing and was devastated. My thoughts are with you. Even after only one meeting, I understand his absence will be felt for a long time.

Tim never got wound up he kept his cool under pressure. He was always pleasant to work with on the job. I remember seeing Tim up on the ski slopes at Alta years ago when we were around 19 years old. We talked a bought some of the ski runs and had a good laugh. Tim you are greatly missed. See you on the other side.

I am so lucky to have known Tim. He always made me smile and laugh. He taught me how to enjoy the simple things in life. I loved how he was so passionate about sports, music, trivia, etc. He loved his children and was so proud of anything they accomplished. He adored his mother and was so thoughtful and caring. Tim was so willing to help his friends when needed. He was honest, kind, and had a lot of integrity. He was such a good example to my boys. He will truly be missed.

I always like Tim since the day I met him at a meeting, then I had the great pleasure of sharing many years working with him. He always caring, joyful and a giant Broncos and Steeler fan, when it was football season, he could tell you everything about the game and who did what. I will miss him very much.

I am Tim's older brother and I attended his service on Saturday. It was nice to meet many of his friends and coworkers and hear their feelings about Tim.
His death was a shock to our family and we will miss him very much. We lived in different states but always kept in touch over the years. He was a good brother always bringing up memories of our childhood. Besides that bond, we shared our interest in sports, our kids and the welfare of our parents. He was a good son helping to take care of our mom and dad as their health faded.
Tim was also a good father and loved his kids very much. He was proud of them and talked about them a lot. He didn't hesitate to sacrifice whatever he could for their benefit.
Hopefully he is resting in peace with our father.

I met first met Tim in 2002 and it was a great ride. He was a great trainer and coworker, as well as a great friend. He always talked about his kids and any accomplishment they made was the theme for our nightly conversations. From his daughter going to college to him and his sons adventures to get autographs from sports stars. I miss the excessive onion covered Domino's pizza he ordered weekly. Always extra onions. Most of all I will miss the quiet gentle soul that is Tim Young. Rest in peace brother. You will be missed.
