Kevin Lee Young, 59, of Litchfield, died on Saturday, Jan. 16, 2021, at 8:20 p.m. at HSHS St. Francis Hospital in Litchfield.

Private family services will be held. Hough Funeral Home in Raymond is assisting the family.

Mr. Young was born June 28, 1961, in Hillsboro, to Kenneth R. and Tjode Lee (Barnes) Young, Sr. He married Micki Simpson on May 7, 1986, in Hillsboro, and she survives.

He graduated from Litchfield High School with the class of 1979. He, along with his son, worked in the building trades.

Mr. Young had an infectious smile and personality that was one of a kind. He never knew a stranger and would light up any room with his sense of humor.

An avid Cardinals fan, he enjoyed riding his motorcycle, but more than anything, he loved spending time with family. He especially loved spending time with his grandchildren.

In addition to his wife, Mr. Young is survived by his mother of Hillsboro; children, Britney (husband Clay) Murphy, Ashley (husband Joe) Webb and Kevin (wife Marrissa) Young, all of Litchfield; grandchildren, Cooper Martin, Maggie Murphy, Cal Webb and Baby H coming in April; and siblings, Kenneth R. (wife Sandy) Young, Jr. of Mt. Olive and Tracy (husband Bill) Cooley of Chatham.

Memorials may be directed to the building trades program at Litchfield High School.
