So many memories such a short time. Love moose

Aww Aug... I think of you so often. Blessings and love to all who cared for him. What a wonderful human.

Auggie was a good caring soul. We were classmates at CHS and I will never forget the road trip to Bloomington after graduation to go quarry hopping. When I found out you passed away it was like a gut punch. I pray the Lord be with you.

I was Augs supervisor at Hill AFB and I was blessed to have 3 troops during my time there at the weather shop who were all incredibly talented. Aug, Rick, and Latoya made being a supervisor so easy. Anyway, the time that I had spent with Aug was great and I remember his friends "hippies" all coming out to Utah for a visit. Great times!

He was a great man would give you the shirt off of his back cant believe his gone will miss you.

As everyone else has said, Auggie was a truly special person. Even as kids, he would always look out for those smaller or weaker than him. He just had this inherent sense of right and wrong. When we were kids, he used to be into martial arts and ninja stuff. I remember him saying that we needed to train so that we were ready to go out on Halloween night and make sure that no one stole candy from the little kids who were trick-or-treating. He was such a good friend, and it makes me sad...

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. I had Auggie as a student at CHS. What a great young man.

Dearest Aug, Im on a Florida beach thinking of you. Earlier I was sittin on the dock of bay doing the same. I will always appreciate your acceptance of my Otis Redding fandom at age 17. You were my first true love and will forever hold a special in my heart. You would always say, bye for now, poophead, but I will just say goodbye for now, beautiful soul. Chris
