Frederick W Young Obituary

Frederick Young, 96, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, October 30, 2024. Born in Queens, NY, he was a longtime resident of Ramsey, retiring to Ocean City MD, then moving to Midland Park. He has spent the past three years splitting his time living with his daughters in Ramsey and Hopatcong, NJ.

Frederick was loved and cherished by his family, which includes his 9 children: Fred and his wife Anne, Tom and his wife MaryBeth, Deirdre Nemeth and her husband Nick, Steve and his wife Kathy, Maria Gaffney and her husband Mike, John, Ed and his wife Chris, Dan and his wife Cyndi and Mike and his wife Bernadette. Frederick is also survived by 35 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren on the way. His family was the joy of his life and he spent as much time as he could with his children and grandchildren. His smile and laughter were contagious where ever he went.

Frederick was predeceased by his loving wife of 55 years, Mary (Farrell) in 2013, and in recent years by his sisters Stacey Newman and Gloria Smith.

Frederick was a devout Roman Catholic who was a parishioner at St Paul Parish in Ramsey since 1961 and also attended the Church of the Nativity in Midland Park while living there. He had deep faith that he shared with his family and friends. He never let a day go by without praying the Rosary.

Frederick began his career working in the field of computers in its infancy in the 1950s. He spent most of his career as a systems analyst at Western Union, ending it at AT&T in Parsippany, NJ.
