ENOSBURG FALLS - Robert M. Young, age 95, passed away Sunday, March 11, 2012 at Our Lady of the Meadows in Richford.
He was born on October 3 1916 and raised in South Starksboro, VT as part of the Quaker Community. Robert was the only son of four children of the late Robert H. & Elizabeth (Birdsall) Young.
Bob was a 1938 Graduate of the University of Vermont. He married Pauline Gleason on November 29, 1946. His professional career started with Farmers Home Administration and he was a self-employed insurance agent representing Modern Woodman of America as well as a tax preparer.
