Dennis Wayne Young Obituary

The world bids farewell to Dennis Wayne Young of Roanoke, Virginia, departing on January 5, 2026 at the age of 75. Dennis leaves behind memories cherished by the community. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Dennis Wayne Young to show support.

Though Dennis may no longer walk beside us, his memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Dennis touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In his absence, his spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.

He is survived by: his wife Trish Young (Patricia); his son Adam Young (Kelley Young); his grandchildren, Jack, Ella and Joseph of Mount Pleasant, SC; his daughter Sara Young of Charlottesville Va; and his brother Gene Young (Woody) of Dublin. He is also survived by several nieces and nephews.
