Guestbook

  1. Austin will be missed. He was kind, caring, helpful, funny, and faithful. I will always have fond memories of singing in the church choir with him. I also remember how he was quick to help us “raise our roof” years ago when building our house. I hope all of your wonderful memories of this great man ease your pain.
