Emily Maureen Young, 45, was surrounded by loved ones in her Bountiful home when she returned peacefully, after a long struggle with cancer, to our Heavenly Father on February 27, 2014. She was born on December 31, 1968 in Los Angeles, California to Christopher L. Young and Margaret Sofa'i Young. She is the third of four children and has 11 nieces and nephews whom she loved and cared for as if they were her own children. She is survived by her father Christopher Young; siblings Dwight, Anita (Chris) and Newly (Sonja); her nieces and nephews Emily "Suki", Lorenzo, Denzo, Letoa, Tofilau, Talalelei, Christopher, Trey, Joyce, Judy and Cato; great-nephew Aden and her pride and joy Olie, her beloved feline companion.
Emily was a miraculous daughter of God. She was independent, fearless, inspiring, intelligent, and a little spunky at times but always loving every minute of every day. Her laugh was infectious and her light radiated like the sun. She was so full of life and vitality that she acquired many hobbies. She loved to travel the world, devoted her free time to playing golf and even accomplished her dreams of becoming a successful entrepreneur. There was no mountain too high, no ocean too wide or dream too far for her to reach because she was a courageous, confident and ambitious woman.
Emily's strong spirit, faith and trust in Heavenly Father, was ever unwavering. She was a strong individual who became a fighter and held steadfast to the hope and light that was in her, even during her toughest times. Our sweet Emily was diagnosed with and had been fearlessly fighting against cancer since 2009. Her positive attitude and inner strength guided her to make the personal decision to fight cancer naturally and without any medical treatments. Yet despite her hardships, she kept a positive attitude with a big smile on her face because she had love, hope, faith and trust in our Heavenly Father that He would lead and guide her according to His will.
On behalf of Emily, we would like to extend our deepest appreciation to the Tender Care Aides and Dr. Raymond Ward for providing the upmost quality care, comfort and kindness towards her. She will be greatly missed, but her sweet uplifting spirit, her example, her love and her legacy will never be forgotten. "Our beloved Aunty Emily, Alofa Atu Ia Te Oe"
She was preceded in death by her mother, Margaret Sofa'i Young.
Interment Bountiful City Cemetery.
