Mr. Lee Roy Young, 95, of Winnfield, Louisiana passed from this life in the early hours of Thursday, March 16, 2023. Mr. Young was born May 07, 1927 to James Owen and Minnie Ola Rachal Young; who preceded him in death, along with two siblings, Mary Waters and James "Jim" Young, one daughter Judy Bond and two grandchildren, Debbie Bond and Jesse Dauzat.

He was an avid fisherman, loved gardening, the outdoors and music. In his later years you could find him in his recliner watching westerns and wrestling. He was a veteran who proudly served his country in WWII and Vietnam.

Mr. Young loved his family and spending time telling about the "Good Ole Days"! He taught them how to plant a garden, take care of animals and to love one another. He instilled in them to first love the Lord with all their heart, mind and soul, not to worry about things of this world because in the end, where you spend eternity is what matters.

He leaves behind the love of his life of 54 years, Mary Young; four daughters, Jeannie Foy, Bridgett Gauthreaux (Noel), Minnie Young, and Janice Austin; four sons, Leslie Dauzat (Lynn), Robert Young, Merke Aymond, Jr. (Yolanda), and Kevin Aymond; eighteen grandchildren; twenty two great grandchildren; two great great grandchildren; numerous nieces and nephews; and lots of friends who've became family.
