Office Staff

Steve Young

President

Steve began his career right out of college working professionally for the YMCA both in Orange County California and Seattle Washington. Eleven years later he was afforded the opportunity to change career paths to begin what became a 25 year involvement in the senior housing industry. With companies like Leisure Care, Wedgewood, Henderson Homes, Careage and even his own consulting business, he honed his operational skills working with Retirement, Assisted Living and Dementia facilities.
During the time between Wedgewood and Henderson he was asked by his father to step in and take over the reins of our family business. The company was stagnate and not growing. That where his skills in day to day operations helped create focus and direction and as a result has been its President for 25 years. Along the way he was able to bring on board his sister Janet to run the day to day allowing him to re-enter Senior Housing.
Although recently retired, he still is involved with the company helping create and develop new and innovative ways to service our customers.

Sherri Young

Office Manager

Sherri grew up in San Diego and lived in California most of her young years. Sunshine and animals were her passions. She started showing dogs at 11 years old and grooming dogs/cats at 16. This led her to a career full of animals. At 28 she opened her grooming shop and thanks to an amazing vet and a Malamute, met her now husband, Steve Young. 15 years later, they start dating and marry a year later. This eventually led Sherri into taking over the office duties when Janet retired. Sherri’s extensive experience in running her grooming shop, chasing kids and managing the day to day office of a very busy construction company at the same time makes her the perfect person to run the day to day life of FSS.
Sherri has 2 daughters a son and 7 grandchildren. Family time, animals and outdoors makes her tick.
