Jimmy passed away peacefully on Sunday night, January 26, 2025, at the Overton County Health & Rehab. Born on May 30, 1948, in Monroe, Tennessee, to the late Gilbert and Mary Jaynes Young, Jimmy was a man who lived a quiet, meaningful life.

He served his country proudly in the United States Army during the Vietnam War, and after returning home, he devoted much of his time to his dairy farm, working the land he loved. He also enjoyed the simple pleasures—taking long walks, riding his 4-wheeler around the countryside, and tending to a garden that seemed to grow as large as his heart.

But it was his family that truly brought him the most joy. Jimmy was a devoted father and grandfather, always finding ways to show his love and care. His memory will live on in his son, Phillip Young and his wife, Brooke, of Livingston; grandchildren, Barrett Young, Cason Young, Haleigh Coffey, and Eden Young; his sisters, Claranel Lancaster and husband Ray of Cookeville, and Barbara Krispin and husband Bill of Nashville; and his brother, Kenneth Young and wife Ann of Scottsboro, AL.

He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Sandra Roberts Young, daughter Jennifer Coffey, granddaughter Nora Coffey, and brothers Wilbur and Thomas Young. While his presence will be deeply missed, his love and the lessons he shared will never be forgotten.

Pallbearers to serve are; Daniel Lancaster, Daniel Lancaster II, Carter Lancaster, Preston Parks, Dalton Phillips, Nathan Krispin, Isaac Krispin.
