Eubanks will be Live-Streamed on Saturday, February 20, 2021 - 1:00 PM EST. Visit the Tribute Wall above to view the Live/Recorded Webcast. Kenneth E. Young (Kashif) was born on November 11, 1961 in Paterson, NJ to the late Gilbert Young, Sr. and Ruth E. Eubanks (Young). He gained his wings on January 19, 2021 at St. Joseph’s Hospital, Paterson after a long illness. Kenny attended and graduated from Paterson Public School #25 and Eastside High School (Mighty Ghost). Although Kenny had other jobs his last job before his illness was at Marcal Paper Mill for over 10 years as a forklift driver. Kenny was a comedian at heart. He loved doing impressions of family members. If you know Kenny from the Pound you know he went by the nickname Kashif. A nickname he decided to give to himself because he liked the singer Kashif. As a huge fan of the NFL Green Bay Packers, he would have been both happy & disappointed that his team was so close to making the Super Bowl this year. Kenny was a proud member of former church, The Church By The Side Of The Road, Passaic, NJ under the leadership of Pastor Rev. Theresa Nance. Kenny took great care of our mother when she became sick. So much so we had to remind him he was sick himself and he needed to slow down to take care of himself. Kenny is resting well and at peace with our mother. Kenny was predeceased by his mother Ruth E. Eubanks (Young), father: Gilbert Young, Sr., sisters: Carrie Bolling, Lillian Mason, Ruth Ash, Grace Young and brothers: Gilbert Young, Jr. and Brandon Eubanks. Kenny leaves to cherish his fond memories to his son: Travis Murray of New Jersey, 5 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild, sisters: Marion Green, Elayne Young, Chelina Stevens (Keith), Jane Baker of New Jersey and brothers: Oliver Young (Monica) and Charles Young (Rosanne) of New Jersey, cousin: Kenneth Barbour, best friends from childhood into adulthood Graylin Armstead, Thomas (Earl) Harris, Jeffrey McGriff, Tony Pierce and Jeffrey Taylor and a host of nieces, nephews and other relatives and friends. Even during times of social distancing, anyone who has suffered a loss deserves love and support more than ever before. Let the family know you care by leaving treasured memories, thoughts and prayers on the Tribute Wall.
