Boonville - Rory Michael Anthony Young, 16, passed away on Monday, July 20, 2009, in Boonville. He was born in Rome, on October 6, 1992, a son of LeRoy Thompson and Jill Young. Rory was a student at Adirondack Senior High School where he enjoyed playing football. He had attended Boonville Alliance Church. He found much joy in joking around and did so at every opportunity. He collected swords and knives, several with beautiful designs. He was looking forward to bird hunting this fall with his Uncle Frank (Young). He loved his grandfather, Donald, and looked forward to visiting him at his home and helping him with household chores, especially cleaning the cellar. He loved all of his pets, including a gecko, an Iguana, a fire-bellied toad, and his fifteen year-old black cat that he named ¿Blackie¿. He was learning how to drive, and looked forward to every chance he had to ¿get into the drivers seat.¿ In addition to his mother and father, Rory is survived by his maternal grandfather, Donald Young of Boonville; his paternal grandparents, Lillie and Charlie Simmons of Lee Center; a paternal grandfather, James Selby of Manteo, NC; three brothers, Luke S. Webster, Jr., of Constableville, Isaiah Webster of Brantingham, and Jaden Thompson of Rome; and two sisters, Selby Young, at home, and Michale Schell of Constableville; and several aunts, uncles and cousins. He was predeceased by his maternal grandmother, Mabel Young, on November 5, 2008; two uncles, Donald F. Young, Jr., and Curtis A. Thompson; and by his favorite babysitter, Robin Spann. His family wishes to send a special acknowledgement to Luke Webster, Sr., Amy Bruce, and Denial and Jason Kohl. Visitation will be Friday from 4-8 p.m. at the Trainor Funeral Home, Inc., 143 Schuyler Street in Boonville. A memorial service will follow at 8:00 p.m., officiated by the Reverend David Hedeen, pastor of the Boonville Alliance Church. Interment will be in Boonville Cemetery.
