Grady Dwain Young

February 1, 1948 - May 1, 2021

Grady Dwain Young, of Conyers, passed away Saturday, May 1, 2021 at Emory Decatur Hospital. Dwain was born in Porterdale, GA to Grady and Lenora Thomas Young. He was preceded in death by his parents and wife, Gloria Pickens Young. Dwain is survived by sons, Scott (Rebecca) Young and Kevin (Angie) Young along with grandchildren, Payton Young, Jenna Young, Wyatt Young, Jaxson Young and Lenora Young. Dwain attended Rockdale High School graduating in 1966. In 1967, he married Gloria and shortly after left for a two year tour in Vietnam in the Army serving in the 84th Engineering Division. Upon his return from Vietnam, Dwain and Gloria resided in the Milstead Village in Conyers where Dwain was active in the Young family service station and wrecker business. He was a long-term member of the Milstead Baptist Church. Dwain loved motorcycles and went on several trips with friends and family over the years to different destinations across the country. As a life-long resident of Rockdale County, Dwain was quick to share stories of happenings around the county and the Milstead Village including his time as a volunteer with the Rockdale County Sheriff’s department in the 1970’s. His quick wit, laughter and smile will be missed by all those who knew him. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, May 8, 2021 at 1 p.m. at Scot Ward’s Green Meadow Chapel, officiated by Reverend Matt Stewart with intermittent following at Green Meadow Memorial Gardens. The family will receive friends on Friday, May 7, 2021 from 6-8 p.m. and on Saturday, May 8, 2021 from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. before the service at the funeral home. In lieu of flowers, those who wish to do so may make a donation to the Milstead Baptist Church or a charity of their choosing in memory of Dwain Young.
