Adrienne Denise Young was born in Plant City, Florida, at South Florida Baptist Hospital, to the late Ernest Young, Sr. and Johnnie Ruth Young, on January 24, 1966.  Known as "Niecy", Adrienne attended Lakeland Senior High School.  She was a loving and caring mother.  Her life of compassionate service was extended beyond her household as she served as the caregiver for her grandmother and her son.

Adrienne put her heart into helping take care of her grandmother, Mary Walker.  She was very patient, but she said what she meant and meant what she said, respectfully.  Niecy had a passion for helping maintain and decorate the graves of loved ones.  She would normally do this on holidays.  As a child, Niecy would take a lot of trips with her siblings, they always had so much fun.  She had a special Aunt, Linda Hobdy, that she could always confide in.
