Devastatingly sad news of the sudden passing on Saturday, 2 April 2016 of the Rev Dr Martin 'Chunky' Young.

"Chunky attended the Johannesburg College of Education where he obtained his Higher Diploma in Education and taught at Bryandale Primary School for three years.

He then decided to enter the ministry and went to Rhodes University where he obtained his BTh (Honours) degree, majoring in Church History. He was inducted to St Michael's Presbyterian Church where he served until he came to St Columba's in Parkview in January 1994.

Chunky was married to his late wife Wendy for many years and has two sons, Garreth and Matthew."
