Obituary for Remington Young
It is with immense sadness that we announce the passing of Remington Hope Young, who left us, all too soon, on May 22, 2022.
Remington was born on August 3, 2001, in Maize, KS. Since the young age of three, Remi showed a huge interest in gymnastics and cheerleading. She would excel over the next thirteen years as a stand-out talent at the Cheer Eclipse All-Star Cheer and Tumbling Academy in Wichita, KS.
She attended Maize High School (class of 2019) where she lettered in cheerleading, earned academic letters for two years, and was a member of the National Honor Society. Her great dream - to cheer as a Kansas Jayhawk - was realized in 2020 when she entered KU as a Biology major. Remington always wanted to help others and was studying to be a physician’s assistant. Her love of children led her to a specific interest in pediatrics, and she also found great fulfillment caring for the elderly as a certified nursing assistant. A passionate advocate for mental health and wellness, Remi will be remembered as a bright and positive light to so many.
Remington loved her family and friends, her Cheer Eclipse family, her KU family, and her KU Cheer team. She touched many lives in the course of her short life and was deeply loved by all who knew her. Remi loved the beach, hunting with her dad, Randy, and long trips with her loving mom, Amy.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Marcia Ulberg, Richard Brown, Randy Young and Mark Ulberg; and great grandparents, Wayne and Millie Ulberg, Jean Crafton, John and Florence Samson, and Vivian Ramsey.
Remington is survived by her parents, Amy Young and Randy Young (Cassie); four siblings; Easton Young, Ali Young, Ashley Yoder, and Amber Yoder; grandparents, Cheryl Ulberg, Debbie Renner (Tom); great grandmother, Mickie Blair; aunts and uncles, Andrea Baskette (Jon), Kara Rocha (Jerry), Tracy Cripps, Amy Bryant (Scott); and many cousins and other extended family members.
