Not sure what to say?

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I worked with Austin as a Yardie, and have only good memories. I am so sorry for your loss, and sending my deepest condolences to Austin’s loved ones.

Austin attended many of my band's shows and gigs and was always an encouraging and positive force.

I’ll always cherish the music we made together. Rest easy among the stars dear friend. Rockstar Dust forever ❤

Austin “Austy” Bailey, born March 14, 1985, in McAllen, Texas went to be with the Lord on December 25, 2025, at the age of 40. He is preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Homer Powell; and his paternal grandfather, Howard Edward Stricklin.

Austy found joy in music and was proud to be part of a band. He enjoyed playing basketball, whether one-on-one or by himself, and was a devoted fan of the San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Cowboys, and Ohio State. He loved anything outdoors, especially dirt bikes, roller skating, and riding side-by-sides. He enjoyed serving others in hospitality. Most importantly, he loved his friends and family more than anything. His smile, his jokes, and his hugs will be deeply missed.   

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, February 7, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with a sharing of memories from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM at Hillcrest Funeral Home.
