Young woman plans emotional tribute at Voices of the North
One of the featured performers at this year’s Voices of the North show almost didn’t make it this year due to her sister’s sudden, tragic death.
Chelsie Young, 27, who auditioned last September, almost cancelled after learning the body of her 22-year-old sister Amy Boskoyous was found on the side of a highway in the Slave Lake area in December. Despite feeling like she might be unable to sing without breaking down, Young said she knew she had to pull herself together and perform at this show.
‘It was the last show that I got to tell my sister about, the last show she was really excited about and proud of me for getting into,” she said.
Boskoyous was reported missing on Nov. 25. Young said an eyewitness saw Amy inside a vehicle pulled over to the side of the highway.
