ANDOVER - ANDOVER - Henry (Hank) A. Young, 93, passed away peacefully on April 27, 2025 in Belmont, MA. The oldest son of the late Henry Young and Alma (Tassinari) Maynard of Boston, Henry was born and raised in Jamaica Plain.

He graduated from Boston English High School and Harvard University, then enlisted in the Air Force during the Korean War, where he served as a meteorologist in Baltimore, MD and Edwards Air Force base in California.
