Tina Marie Young, 52, beautiful and courageous, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, May 23, 2018, in her beloved home in Austin, Minnesota, surrounded by loved ones. Tina fought a long battle with not only two types of cancers, but also endured many strokes. She never once gave up the fight or complained during her illness. She was committed and determined to win this long battle for not only her family, but also her friends.

Tina was born on Feb. 7, 1966, in Orange, California, to Edward and Charlene Young. When Tina was three, her family moved to Austin, where she grew up. While growing up, she took part in her first communion and confirmation at St. Augustine Catholic Church. She graduated from Pacelli High School in 1984. She married Don Hoban in 1987 and to this union two beautiful daughters were born. They later divorced. While raising her daughters, Tina worked at Perkins and attended college to provide for her family. As a server she touched the lives of others and had an amazing impact on her customers. Tina was a beloved mother, grandmother, and sister who would do anything for her family. Tina will be remembered for her love of animals, her fun-loving personality and selflessness.
