Lisa Marie Young was the eldest child and only daughter of Don Young and Marlene "Joanne" Young, née Martin.[1] She has two younger brothers, Brian and Robin.[2] Growing up in Nanaimo, she attended Brechin Elementary and Woodlands Secondary School.[3][4] Young's maternal grandfather (Martin's father, Moses Martin) is Tribal Chief of the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation on the West Coast of Vancouver Island. Joanne and both of her parents (Moses and Cecilia) attended Kakawis Residential School on nearby Meares Island.[1]
Young was close with her family. Martin described her as an independent woman who was a hard worker with a hard head, and had "inner strength that was totally awesome."[5] Dallas Hulley, an acquaintance of Young and the last person to hear from her, described Young as "outgoing, confident, bubbly," and said "She was somebody you noticed right away, at a party or a gathering, or whatever it was. She just had a light about her." Young was a vegetarian and a fitness enthusiast and enjoyed rollerblading at the waterfront.[6]
She and a roommate lived next door to her parents in a Barons Road apartment building,[7] but at the time of Young's disappearance, her father was helping her move into her own apartment in northern Nanaimo,[8] something she was excited about.[9] Young was also preparing to start a job at a call centre within two days of her disappearance,[8] and considering pursuing higher education, with the hopes of becoming a television sports broadcaster.[1]
