Following retirement, he began to work for the Wicomico County Regional Library, delivering books to all the libraries on the upper Eastern Store. His delightful personality made him an ideal fit for all the faces, places and spaces he encountered. After 22 years, Carl retired from the library to enjoy a life of leisure with family and friends. His favorite pastimes were tinkering in his shed, watching old westerns and spending time with his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Carl was a faithful member of Powerhouse Church of God in Christ in Salisbury, MD for over 25 years, serving as a Deacon under the leadership of Elder Alexander Duffy, Sr. He was a dedicated and pleasant member who would lend a hand whenever called upon. His benevolence, bright smile and joyous spirit warmed the hearts of the many people he met. His obvious love for his brothers and sisters was a true example of how the Lord wants all of us to be. He leaves precious, unforgettable memories with: his wife of 42 years, Darlean Belin Young of Salisbury, MD; his brothers and sisters, Abel Young, Jr. (Callie) and Reverend James Young (Estella), both of Salisbury, MD, Leonard Young and Rosie Dennis, both of Newark, MD and Viola Young of Crum Lynne, PA; his children, Demetrice Gregory (Charles, Sr.) of Salisbury, MD, Pandora Belin of Delmar, DE, Dwight Belin (Kellie) of San Diego, CA and Wanda Belin of Reisterstown, MD.
