Dear Mom (Mrs. C.L. Young), There are not enough words in any language to describe our love and adoration for you! You were the EPITOME of what it means to "Stand By Your Man" (Tammy Wynette, 1968). Every time you opened your eyes, your main focus and goal was to "Be A Rainbow In Someone Else"s Cloud" (Maya Angelou). Your willingness to receive and wear the crown as our "Family Matriarch" is an ever present testament to the guidance you received from your mom. We are well aware that having you as our "Guardian Angel" is what we can embrace and face the day to day obstacles of life! Thank you for providing us with everything we need to continue existing in these perilous times without your physical presence. Your legacy will live on generations and generations to come! Love you forever! Your children, grand-children, and great-grand children

Dear Dad (Mr. W.C. Young), Your participation in World War II played an integral part in the freedoms we enjoy here in the United States of America! We appreciate every sacrifice you made for us throughout your life! Your love, knowledge, guidance, and encouragement are the four pillars that support us each and every day! We carry you in our hearts every step along life's journey, and with you as "Our Guardian Angel", we know that there's no obstacle we can't overcome. Thank you for your service!!! Love always, Your children, grand-children, and great-grandchildren! Dec. 18, 2021
