Randall Young

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Randy Young on September 19, 2024. Although Randy may have left us too soon, the love and impact he shared with his family and friends will last forever. Known for seeing the best in others, Randy loved people for the goodness in their hearts, never defining them by the mistakes they made along the way.

His resilience, determination, and tenacity were an inspiration to all who knew him. Though his time was shorter than expected, Randy tackled every challenge head-on and left behind a legacy of kindness and love that will continue to guide us.

Randy is survived by his mother, Judy Young; sister, Donna Young; son and daughter-in-law, Travis and Laura Young; granddaughter, Emma White; niece, Baleigh Goforth, and her partner Adam Hawkins; Nephew, Bryson Goforth, and his fiance Kaycee McBrayer; and several close friends and other family members. He is preceded in death by his father, D.A. Young.

A private viewing for close family will be held to honor Randy & #39;s memory. A celebration of life will take place on Wednesday, September 25 from 5-7 pm at his mother's residence, 137 Hitson Road, Maryville, TN 37801.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to the GoFundMe to assist with costs during this difficult time.
