Deacon WILLIAM "BILL" ANTHONY YOUNG, beloved husband of the late Janice Young, passed away peacefully at Peter Lougheed Centre in Calgary, on Tuesday, November 14, 2023, at the age of 74 years.

He will be tenderly remembered by his four children: Anita (Laval) Richardson of Stirling, Karrie (Carl) Yaroschak of Calgary, Theressa (Brian) Young of Calgary, and Gerald (Brandi) Young of Lethbridge. He is also survived by his siblings: Tim (Joann) Young of Kelowna, Bud (Karen) Young of Regina, Nicki (Jack) Niedermayer of Regina, Susan (Dave) MacDonald of Dallis and Wynona Young of Regina. Held most dear in his heart were his seven adoring grandchildren: Alexia, Jayde, Conner, Sofia, Murry, Max and Rhyan.

Bill was born Dec 14, 1948 in Regina, SK., where he met his beautiful wife, Jan. Bill grew up in Regina with parents, Nick & Mary Young, and his six siblings.  He enjoyed hunting & fishing with his brothers, and playing shinny & baseball in the field behind their home.  A born and bred Roughriders fan who loved to spend his Sunday afternoons watching Football and car races. Bill and Jan were married on July 13, 1968 in Regina. They spent the next 55 years together, building and nurturing their loving family. He was not only a devoted husband, father, and grandfather, but he was also passionate about his church, his faith, and his community. He was graced with incredible strength to endure the many physical hardships that our Lord put before him. He was admired by all for the love and kindness he shared every day.

Husband, Father, Grandfather, Relative, and Friend - he will be sorely missed and yet an inspiration to us all.
