Mr Keith E A Young, long time member of the ACL’s Council, died in Adelaide last Tuesday. A Memorial Service is being held in Adelaide today.

The ACL gives thanks for Keith’s friendship and fellowship in the Lord Jesus over many years.

Keith was the ACL’s Honorary Treasurer until around 1990, and he also served as the Honorary Treasurer for the CMS NSW branch. He hailed originally from St. Clement’s Mosman, but for many years Keith was an active member of St. Andrew’s Roseville, and served as a parish nominator. He had also been a member of the Presentation Board and the Finance & Loans Board of Sydney Diocese.

Former ACL President Bruce Ballantine-Jones recalls that Keith was a loyal and committed evangelical who was a blessing to his parish, to the ACL, CMS and the Diocese. He is remembered for his cheerful disposition and his ministry of encouragement. Gordon Robinson remembers Keith as a longtime friend and as a dedicated behind-the-scenes worker.

Keith and his wife Barbara were married for 62 years. Please uphold before our heavenly Father Keith’s family and friends in these days.
