Mike was born January 30, 1958 to Col. Clyde (deceased) and Angelyn Young.

He lived his life with high spiritual standards and was a great example to his family and friends. Gifted in sports, he excelled in golf and earned a golf scholarship to the University of Northern Alabama, where he graduated in 1980. His love for golf allowed him to play on many beautiful and challenging courses around the country, including the highlight of attending the Masters Tournament in Augusta, GA. Mike also enjoyed bass-fishing, Texas A&M sports and spending time with his family.
Mr. Young was a sharp, gifted and professional businessman, getting his start with Johnson & Johnson and moved to Dallas, TX in 1982, where he met the love of his life, Linda Kay Bareither Young.
