Mason Levi Young, age 16, of Somerville, Ohio, unexpectedly passed away on August 15, 2026. He was born in Kettering, Ohio, on August 19, 2009, to Travis and Dorothy Young.
Mason was beginning his junior year at Edgewood High School, where he was a varsity soccer player and a member of DECA and Best Buddies. He was known for his kind heart, his sense of humor, and his ability to make the people around him laugh.
Mason loved spending time outdoors, especially fishing, camping, and working at his lawn care job. He loved playing soccer, listening to music, dancing, and most of all, spending time with his family and friends. Christmas was his favorite holiday-so much so that the celebration practically started in July. Mason had a way of bringing joy and laughter wherever he went, and his presence will be deeply missed by everyone who knew and loved him.
Mason had big plans for his future and hoped to work for CSX after graduating high school. He was a hardworking young man with so much ahead of him, and his family and friends will forever cherish the memories of the person he was and the happiness he brought into their lives.
Mason is survived by his parents, Travis and Dorothy, siblings, Morgan and Max; his grandparents, Alvin and Patty Hale and Mike and Pam Young; his great-grandmother, Linda Hale; his aunts and uncles, Craig and Billie Sitcler, Scott and Heather Mullins, and Eric and Karen Gren; as well as many extended family members and dear friends.
Visitation will be held at Anderson Funeral Home, 40 N. Main St., Springboro, OH 45066 on Friday, August 21, 2026, from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, August 22, 2026, at 11 :00 AM. Following the graveside service, family and friends are invited to gather at 4654 Oxford Middletown Road, Middletown, OH 45042.
Memorial contributions may be made at any Fifth Third Bank to the Mason Young Memorial Fund.
Though Mason's life was far too short, the love, laughter, and memories he gave to those around him will live on forever. He will be loved, remembered, and missed every single day.
