Kathryn Young

February 22, 1950 — February 21, 2025

Kathryn Lynn Young, was born February 22,1950 to the late Elizabeth Davis and Bruce N. Chambers. She was one of 6 born to Elizabeth Davis. Kathryn was educated in the Cleveland Ohio public schools system and was an excellent student who later became licensed as an STNA.

Kathryn married George Young, September 23, 1967 and together they had 7 beautiful children whom everyone knew she loved dearly. It was not uncommon at all to hear Kathryn refer to her children as, "My Babies". She was preceded in death by her son Michael Christopher Young, June 2024. Kathryn was an energetic, industrious, self-sacrificing woman, mommy and friend! In addition to being a loving mother who was active in supporting her children's education and school activities, she also held various jobs such as: Babysitter (to countless children) Housekeeper, Home Health Aide and others.

The highest value in her life was her dedication to Jehovah God, Kathryn took this very seriously anyone who knew her knew that. She remained faithful as one of Jehovah's Witnesses from her Baptism in 1968 until the end of her life. Kathryn loved talking to people about the Bible and spent countless hours volunteering her time to share the Bible's hope. During that time she helped many to learn about and develop a personal relationship with Jehovah, this was paramount in her life.

Kathryn was a very loving and hospitable woman. There was nothing she wouldn't do for you within her capabilities to do so, even if she a little means. She often welcomed others into her home and into her heart. Kathryn exuded the same loving spirit as our faithful christian sister Dorcas referenced at Acts 9:36-43- A woman that was both loved and adored.

So many have fond memories of her calling them "my baby" or "sweetheart". She was often called mom by many both young and old, Kathyrn had a unique way of making you feel like the only person in the room that mattered. Her children often say, " We shared our mother with the world".

Kathryn was a loving mother, cherished sister, a loyal friend and a genuine person. She met everyone with a beautiful smile and had a laugh that would make you laugh too.

After courageously battling a difficult illness, she quietly, peacefully slipped away on Friday 21, 2025.

Kathryn leaves to cherish her memory, her children: George Young, Jr., Marla Robertson (Husband-Anthony), Mark Young (Wife-Karen) Michelle Williams (Husband-Sylvester), Geraldine Young, Jaison Young (Wife-RaNeeka) her sister Elizabeth Worley; 23 grandchildren, several great grandchildren and a large host of nieces, nephews, in-laws, very dear friends and a worldwide brotherhood of brothers and sisters. Yes, Kathryn will be greatly missed.
