I will always cherish my time with sweet Austin P. He was more then a client to me. I learned so much from this man in the year that I was with him- he taught me to hold tight your love ones and to put God first even when it's hard to see what he has in store. This man was truly one of a kind- praying for Cindy Lou, Riley, Charlotte and Pam in this time. I know Austin P is loving on Ms. Geneva right now and looking down on us.
