It's with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Jeff Younger, a true Mustangs legend and lifelong supporter of this club.
Jeff played with the St. Vital Mustangs from 1969 to 1977, winning five championships along the way. He went on to coach and serve in executive roles starting in 1979, giving back to the game and the community he loved. Jeff was inducted into the St. Vital Mustangs Hall of Fame four times — three times as a player on championship teams, and once in the Builder category.
Even after moving to Alberta, Jeff's love for football never faded — he went on to found the Airdrie Storm Bantam team in 1995. Wherever he went, he brought people together around the game.
Jeff remained a proud alumnus, always making a point to attend our dinners and events. He will be deeply missed by the entire Mustangs family.
Our thoughts are with his wife Norma, daughters Katy and Christine, and their families during this difficult time.
A celebration of life will be held Thursday, November 12, 11am–4pm at Woodside Golf Course, 525 Woodside Drive NW, Airdrie, AB. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to a charity of your choice in Jeff's name.
