Mary Elizabeth Youngs

1962 — 2024

Scotia

Scotia- With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Mary Youngs, a beloved mother, grandmother, friend, and family member, who passed away on November 11, 2024. Born in Albany, Mary made Scotia her home, raising her family with strength, love, and laughter.

Known for her sharp wit, Mary could light up any room with her humor and kindness. She taught her nephew how to shoot spitballs and opened her home to those in need, always lending a helping hand. A Yankees fan to the core, Mary brought the same tenacity to her battle with cancer and lung transplant.

Mary is survived by her devoted partner of 20 years, Michael Barbieri; daughters Liz (Shashank) Dewjee and Michele Hunter; her nephew and son Brian Kirker; grandchildren Kai and Avi Dewjee; and her “adopted” daughter Brittney (Anthony) Artese and family. Special thanks go to Dr. Patrick Timmons, Michael Castellana, Rosalind Lopez, the staff at Broadview Credit Union and St. Peter’s Hospice Inn.

Special gratitude to Mike, her steadfast partner who braved her humor and stubbornness with love. In lieu of flowers, donations in Mary’s name may be made to The Community Hospice Foundation for their compassionate care.

In honor of her memory, please join us in celebrating her life and fighting spirit, Thursday November 21, 2024. Calling 10-11am followed by 11am service held at New Comer Cremations & Funerals 343 New Karner Road Colonie, NY 12205. Interment to follow at Memory Gardens Cemetery & Memorial Park.
