Khajun Talia Young

Khajun Talia Young was a 22-year-old woman from Westmont, California whose life touched family and community. Though public records about her life beyond basic facts are limited, what is clear is that Khajun was a young member of her neighborhood whose loss in November 2021 left an enduring ache for those who knew her.

Born in the late 1990s, Khajun came of age in the greater Los Angeles area and lived in Westmont at the time of her passing. Neighbors and community pages that note her death place her at 1346 W. 95th Street in Westmont on the evening of November 17, 2021; she was 22 years old when she died. The Los Angeles Times Homicide Report and other public memorial lists record her name and date of death, reflecting the community’s recognition of her as an individual rather than as a statistic.

Publicly available information about Khajun focuses on the circumstances of her death and the family’s search for answers. While those facts are part of the record, they do not define the whole of her life. Even in scarce records, a person’s value is evident in the concern of loved ones and neighbors who sought justice, held vigils, and worked to keep her memory alive. Community-led memorials and listings that include Khajun’s name are a reminder that her life mattered to people who remember her presence and mourn her absence.

Because a formal, family-authorized obituary matching the exact death date could not be located in public, authoritative funeral notices, this remembrance honors the person revealed by available records: a young woman with family, a place in her community, and a life cut far too short. This page is intended to acknowledge Khajun’s humanity — to name her, to record the date she was lost, and to hold space for those who carry her memory. If family members or close friends wish to provide additional details about her life, achievements, relationships, and passions, those contributions would help ensure this remembrance grows into a fuller portrait of Khajun’s life and the people who loved her.
