With sadness, the Diocese of Westminster announces the death on Wednesday 22nd March, of Fr Henry Patrick Thomas Young. He died peacefully at St Anne’s Home, Stoke Newington where he had been living for the past twelve months. Fr Henry was receiving end of life care.

Fr Henry was born in London on 20th April 1932 and ordained to the priesthood on 16th June 1957 at Westminster Cathedral. Condolences are extended to Fr Henry’s family, friends and colleagues, to all who knew him from his years of teaching at the Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School in Kensington from 1961 to 1992 and to the Sisters, staff and residents at St Anne’s Home.

Fr Henry’s Funeral Mass will be on Tuesday 16th May  at 11.30am at Our Lady of Victories, Kensington. Bishop Paul McAleenan will preside and the homily will be given by Mgr Séamus O’Boyle. Burial at St Mary’s Cemetery, Harrow Road NW10 will follow the Funeral Mass.

We pray for the repose of Fr Henry’s soul:

Almighty and eternal God,
hear our prayers for your son Fr Henry Young
whom you have called from this world to yourself.
Grant him light, happiness and peace.
Let him pass in safety through the gates of death, and live for ever with all your saints in the light you promised to Abraham and to all his descendants in faith.
Guard him from all harm
and on that great day of resurrection and reward raise him up with all your saints.
Pardon his sins and give him eternal life in your kingdom.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.

May the soul of Fr Henry rest in peace and rise in glory.

Amen.
