W.E. was born on Thursday, January 8, 1942, in Orange, Texas to parents, Elsie Marie Girlinghouse and Walton Elroy Young, Sr. He had been a lifetime resident of Orange, Texas and was known and loved by so many people of the community and surrounding areas. He was especially known for riding his bike all over the place, short and long distances.

W.E. also loved to fish very often in his younger days and spent much time doing so. At any given time on any given day, you could walk into W.E.'s house and it was guaranteed that he was going to have some type of crime show or live PD on the television. W.E. loved his family very much and truly made the most of his years here with them. W.E. was a husband, father, son, brother, grandfather and friend who will forever be loved and missed by all who knew him.
