David Alan Young

David Alan Young was born to the union of Frederick B. Young, Jr. and Dorris J. (Laye) Young on April 12, 1963, at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia. David was the third of four siblings. David was a member of a military family, and because of this, he was afforded the opportunity to travel extensively throughout the United States as well as Okinawa, Japan. David accepted Christ at an early age, was a member of Mount Calvary Baptist Church in Suisun City, CA, and served as a Junior Deacon. On August 12, 2000, he married the love of his life, Tonaya Sue Jacobson. David received his elementary through high school education through the Fairfield-Suisun Unified School District and graduated from Fairfield High School in 1981. To fulfill his desire to become a chef he studied culinary arts at Solano Community College in Fairfield, CA. He later gained employment in the restaurant business and enjoyed a career lasting more than thirty years before it was cut short by his failing health. David was a 49ers fan. The word “avid” doesn’t adequately describe David’s feelings about the SF 49ers! His Motto was “Win, Lose, or Tie. I’m a Niner Till I die!! “Don’t Hate”. Before David’s departure on September 29th, he was preceded in death by his mother, his brother, Frederick B. Young, III, and his wife, Tonaya Sue Jacobson Young.
