Obituary of Frederick Nelson Moo Young
YOUNG, FREDERICK NELSON MOO
Passed away at Peterborough Regional Health Centre on March 17th, 2025. Dr. Frederick Moo Young of Elliot Lake, born in 1928 in Jamaica and most recently of Lakefield, at the age of 96. Beloved husband of Lynda (née Wallace). Dear father of Andrew (Lisa) Young, Matthew (Erin) Young, Allison (Mark) Young-Berkowitz, Phillip (Julie-Anne) Young and Timothy (Heather) Young. Devoted grandfather of Charlee, Emilie, Hannah, Helena, Sophia, Jacob, Emma, Ava, Ethan and Andie. Fred will also be missed by many extended family members in Canada and Jamaica, and numerous grand nieces and nephews in the United States.
Fred grew up in Lucea, Jamaica as one of 7 siblings. He interned in Ottawa and met Lynda, a nurse at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. Northern Ontario was booming, so they moved to Elliot Lake where he practiced medicine at St. Joseph’s General Hospital, Hillside Clinic and Huron Lodge. They raised a family together for 50 years.
Fred’s deepest love was for his family and his work as a General Practitioner, followed closely by his love for tennis, boxing, and Chinese food. He only retired from medicine at the age of 91, due to his dedication to his community and patients. Fred’s enthusiasm for learning and staying up-to-date with his profession made him well-respected by all who knew him. He enjoyed gardening and being out on the lake. He and Lynda moved to Lakefield recently, and Fred loved his time in the village and all that it had to offer.
Arrangements have been entrusted to HENDREN FUNERAL HOME – LAKEFIELD CHAPEL. A memorial service will take place in Elliot Lake at a later date this summer. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Huron Lodge or St. Joseph’s General Hospital by visiting the funeral home website at www.hendrenfuneralhome.com, or by calling 705-652-3355.
