  • Andrew GaskillHayden for sure, is not easy to forget. Hayden was not even in primary school when I first started attending WPC, and for some reason (not being a young trendy, high action, socially motivated person) I had absolutely no verbal contact with Hayden at church. Even as a Sunday school teacher, I never managed to have Hayden in my class. It wasn't until some of his family moved to Paynesville, that all of a sudden, Hayden came to stay for some time at my Eley Eoad/Travel Agency house. We "knew" each other, but didn't "know" each other. And it was that period of time that I, and the youth in my home then got to know Hayden really well. Not aware that he had "an indoor voice" - we could always hear Hayden and his phone calls. Although we were quite different people, we seemed to get on well, and Hayden was always highly respectful in that home. My own father died at the same age as Hayden did, and I now see how young that really was. In the pain of the Young family and friends, I am also very grateful for each day that I am allowed on this earth - to enjoy, contribute and leave it a better place. Hello to all the other WPC names that I see in this guest book - Love from Andrew6th June, 2024
  • Pauline Ngonvoraraj Hayden... the the way you lived, loved and laughed will never be forgotten! You had a heart that was as big as your smile. Looking back, you lived a life the way we all should be living life and that is with no fear, no judgement and to live each day like it is our last. It feels surreal to know that your time has come (too soon) but may you fly free of pain and in peace. Much love from myself, Micky, Mum, Dad, Bobby and Ant. Thank you for being there for all of us and for being you... 'never change' is what you always said to me when we had those early morning DNMs at podgee's haha... love you long time x6th June, 2024
  • Leesa Woods (nee Blake)What an honour to be able to watch this service online. I have fond memories of growing up with Hayden and his family at Wattle Park Chapel and also through school. May he rest in peace in glory, in the loving arms of his heavenly father and creator. My love and condolences go out to his family and friends. ox5th June, 2024
  • Andy Salomons Condolences to Keith, Rose, Paula, Milton, Andrea and all families and friends of Hayden . Mel and I were blessed to have known and played a small part in Haydens teenage life . Being one of his youth leaders was both frustrating but also strangely comforting, with Hayden being mischievous but also full of love and praise . Some of my fond memories of Hayden , were the times Lyndon Otten and I shared taking Hayden and Danny Fekete surfing to various locations . There was a great bond like big brothers and little brothers. They are the relationships that I will cherish , although we all drifted apart over the years , my prayer is we influenced each other in positive ways, as I know Hayden did on me . With his infectious smile, deep deep voice and expressions of gratitude. I did not know that he had made his peace with Jesus and been baptised, and this is such a blessing to me , Mel and I’m sure , Hayden’s family. To know we will be together with him again one day, in the presence of the creator is a great ending to a great but short life .5th June, 2024
  • Rowan VeenendaalThe loveable Larrikin 34 years ago, who was this kid in the Adanac games room, I immediately wanted to be his friend. His light shined bright. Big cheeky grin. Full of energy. Bouncing around the room. Mischievously he had a hand full of lollies, but the games room canteen was closed… do you want some? he said, knowing my brother and I were new to the camp. Hayden and his mate Mark welcomed us. We’re going for a skate, want to come? Little did we know this was the start of a very special life long friendship. That was the very first time I met Hayden Young, mischievous, full of life, loveable character, who everybody wanted to be around. His energy warmed up the room where-ever he was. With his big booming voice and goofy laugh he always made the people around him feel comfortable, welcomed and most of all loved. I’m going to miss this guy, but know he would not want us all to be sad… but most definitely would want us to be celebrating his life. Remembering all the good times shared growing up. As there was so many good times and laughs when you were mates with Hayden Young. Till we meet again. Rest In Peace my brother. 5th June, 2024
  • Dave DassDear Keith and Rosie, Paula, Milton, Andrea, and Family, I just wanted to write a quick note to express our deepest condolences on Hayden's passing. We are profoundly sorry to hear this news. Although we haven't been in touch for a long time, we think of you and the family often, especially Hayden. I have fond memories of Hayden from my time running the Youth Group at Wattle Park with Milton, Glenn, and the other boys. Hayden was someone I cared for deeply. He always wanted to fit in and was doing his best. I saw a lot of myself in him and always wanted the best for him. One of my favorite memories is helping him with his suit and tie for a family wedding. He came up dressed but without his tie properly done, so I fixed it for him and made sure he was ready before the ceremony. I planned to be there today, but work has unfortunately taken an unexpected turn, and I am unable to attend in person. However, I did manage to join the ceremony online to share in the memories and support you all from afar. It was a very touching and a beautiful send off and I felt Christ's love in that church this afternoon. Please accept our deepest sympathy and love. Our thoughts are with you, and the entire family during this difficult time. Love to reach out to you Keith and Rosie and make a special effort to catch up in the coming weeks. Hopefully, I will find you through my contacts and give you a call. May God provide you with peace, grace, and mercy. May His love and peace cover you all as you navigate this loss. We pray that His everlasting faithfulness will uphold and carry you all through this time. ‭Romans 8:17-18 AMP‬ And if we are His children, then we are His heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ sharing His spiritual blessing and inheritance, if indeed we share in His suffering so that we may also share in His glory. For I consider from the standpoint of faith that the sufferings of the present life are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is about to be revealed to us and in us! With deepest sympathy and regards, David and Melinda Dass5th June, 2024
  • Louise Haig and Family Today was a tough day but a real tribute to the beautiful soul you really were. We grew up as neighbours and best mates. We shared memories together throughout both primary school and high school living life to the fullest. We are great full you came and shared last summer with us all, catching up right where we left off. You’re no longer with us but will never be forgotten. Rest in peace Hayden x 5th June, 2024
  • Alicja and Elvira JanowiczHayden, you were such a beautiful soul. Alicja and I were lucky enough to meet you through my brother Martin and one of your best friends. We watched you grow from a boy to a man to a father and a gorgeous human full of kindness, fun and compassion. It has been and honour to know you. You will be missed by all. With great sadness in our hearts we say rest in peace. 5th June, 2024
  • Ainsley Jackson (nee Carr)Hayden you were always a massively bright spark, lighting up (sometimes literally!) the lives of all who knew you. I was so blessed that you came to Dad's funeral last year and thankful too for your kindness at that time. No doubt you're both having a ball catching up now and remembering all the fun times and funny stories of Adanac and Sailing Camp. Until we meet again, my love and prayers for your family and friends.5th June, 2024

  • Garry Vanderlinden We have lost a number of good mates in recent times (Mark Crellin, Tiya Ket, Mick Cicero, Filthy Phil, Frank Fishman, but none more so than you Haitchi). You will be in good company. You will also be sadly missed by all your mates in the Lagging, Sheet Metal and Plumbing Fraternity. You were dealt a rough hand but always soldiered on. To a great workmate and friend, also one of the gutsiest people I've known. I am sorry I can't be there to send you off, but I will raise a glass in your honour. RIP HAITCH. Condolences to the Young family. Gazza V.1st June, 2024
