Obituary of Daphne YOUNG

Our dear Mom and Grandma, Daphne Dorothy Young passed away peacefully in the early hours of New Year’s Day. She leaves to mourn her son Colin (Linda), daughter Thea (Peter), and granddaughters Anne and Sarah. Born in Winnipeg, Mom joined the Women’s Royal Canadian Naval Service (the WRENS) during WWII and was posted to various parts of Canada and finally Cornwallis before being sent to England and Scotland. She fondly remembers her time overseas as among the best in her life and still kept in touch with friends she made during her years in service. Mom made friends wherever she went, but above all she was devoted to her family. She was delighted to finally become a grandmother and took great pride in both her granddaughters. She was a giving, loving and wonderful mother and grandmother who will be so greatly missed and forever loved. Our thanks go to the staff at the Colonel Belcher who have been wonderful in their care of Mom. A private family service will be held at a later date. If friends wish, donations could please be made to the MS Society of Canada - Alberta & NWT Division in lieu of flowers. HERITAGE FUNERAL SERVICES “Heritage Funeral Home” Telephone: 299-0100
