Thomas Young of Derry, NH, age 34, passed away unexpectedly the weekend of September 29, 2018. As a youngster he was full of energy and had a love of life. As a young man, he worked as a roofer and general carpenter. He was a hard worker and could do the work of two men. He took great satisfaction in completing jobs and doing them right. His high energy, beaming smile and friendly nature would light any room he entered. Unfortunately he began experimenting with drugs and soon set on a lifelong struggle with addiction. As his chains and burdens became heavier he tried many times to break free often crying out to the Lord, (Mat 11:28). He had many Christian friends who had him in their prayers. He was always open to hear the Word and was encouraged by it. His last two months were spent working and seeking the Lord. RIP Thomas.
He is survived by his mom Debbie Ramos of Florida, father John Young of Concord, N.H., sister Megan Marshall and brother Richard Young.
