His obituary published Monday, 14 November 1932 in The Calgary Herald (Page 2, Column 4) reads as follows:
“Insect Painter Dies.
Vancouver, Nov. 14 (CP) – With the death here of Charles Warburton Young, aged 66, West Vancouver, Canada lost on of her greatest painters of animal and insect life. Through his intimate knowledge of animal life in Canada, particularly in British Columbia, and through his realistic portrayals of their likenesses on canvas, Mr. Warburton gained wide recognition. Coming to Canada in his youth from England, he became noted as a big game hunter.”
