Robert B. Young of Niles passed away on Sunday, January 23, 2022, at 5:13 p.m. in Trumbull Regional Medical Center. He was 82 years old.

Robert was born on March 28, 1939, at home in Niles, the son of the late William H. and Marie Bowen Young.

Mr. Young Attended Niles McKinley High School. Following high school, Bob began his 43-year career in sheet metal with Peerless-Winsmith and retired in 2002. He also worked at Schink‘s Marine in Niles part time for many years.

He was a member of the former First Presbyterian Church of Niles. Bob lived, slept, and breathed anything to do with cars. He was commonly known as “Mr. Mopar” to everyone who knew him for his knowledge of Mopar’s. To say he was passionate about cars is an understatement. Bob was involved in antique cars, shows, and rebuilds to drag racing. Earlier in life he loved to repair boats and ride snowmobiles. All these enjoyments Bob did with his family. He loved having his sons with him making memories in the garage, on the track, or riding through the snow.

He is survived by his wife, Marlyne Bailey Young, whom he married January 31, 1959; 2 sons, Robert J. (Cari) Young of Niles; Michael C. (Cheryl) Young of Vienna; a brother, Edward (JoAnn) Young of Niles; a sister, June Orwig of Niles; a grandchild, Trisha (Larry) Abatt; 2 great grandchildren, Tyler, and Robert.
