Dear Austin Family,
You have my deepest condolences. I was so sorry and saddened to hear of your dad's passing. I remember him and his red hair, always smiling, and happy. As kids, we always had fun at the Austin house, memories certainly to cherish. My heartfelt Blessings and prayers to all of you at this difficult time.

I always remembered Mr. Austin as a patient, gentle, leader, with great abilities in many areas. He was surely a great family man of God, raising all of his children with Mrs. Austin in a home that I recall being very comfortable in as one of the "neighbor boys". He has always had my utmost respect, and will be remembered as a Godly, respected soul and patriarch of our neighborhood! Rest in the arms of God, Mr Austin! -Ross##imported-begin##Ross and Angela Vander Jagt##imported-end##
