Saratoga Springs, NY - Seth Asa Younes, a senior at Saratoga Springs High School, died suddenly on February 26, 2013. He was 18. Seth was born December 13, 1994 to Asa and Debra Younes, spending his first 13 days in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Albany Medical Center. From his earliest moments, Seth burst forth with a formidable, gentle spirit and a passion for living. Known for his brilliant smile and charming personality, Seth was a hard worker always willing to lend a helping hand. Seth enjoyed his work at Saratoga National Golf Course. Strong and athletic, he played defenseman on the Blue Streaks lacrosse team. He loved spending time with his friends. Seth was an avid outdoorsman who camped and fished often with family-especially his dad and Uncle Sam, with whom he worked on cars and shared a special friendship. Seth was a fun, social guy who loved Five Guys burgers, gaming online with his X-Box, and listening to music on his iPod. He often played games with his younger brother, Josh, who looked up to him. Seth hoped to study Business Administration in college and perhaps, one day, become a New York State Trooper like his grandfather. Seth is survived by his mother and stepfather Debra and Matthew Sheldon; father and stepmother Asa Younes and Valerina Hamilton; brothers Joshua Kelly, Devon Bovee, Nicholas Seitzinger and sisters Alexis Younes and Rylie Sheldon; grandparents Asa and Connie Younes, Richard and Ellen Sheldon and several aunts, uncles and cousins. Relatives and friends may call from 12noon to 4pm Sunday, March 3, 2013 with a celebration of Seth's life starting at 4pm at the William J. Burke & Sons/Bussing & Cunniff Funeral Homes, 628 North Broadway, Saratoga Springs (584-5373). All are welcome to attend a gathering from 6 to 8 p.m. at The Prime at Saratoga National Golf Course. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made directly to the family or in Seth's name to the NICU, Albany Medical Center, 43 New Scotland Ave., MC 119, Albany, NY 12208.
