It’s been 2 years since I lost my “big brother “ and I miss him every day. I always knew he would always be there for me.

Our prayers go out to Austin's family. I knew Austin at North High and always appreciated his generous inclusion of a ragamuffin a few years younger. We were in Boy Scouts together and I remember sharing in the dirty work at R-C Ranch. It was great fun with pals. Truly a wonderful guy with whom I wish I had spent more time.
RIP Austin!

My prayers are with Austin's family. He was a wonderful friend at North High. He was generous in his willingness to put up with a ragamuffin a couple of years younger. I, too, remember the Boy Scouts and the some of the dirty work at the R-C Ranch. It was all great fun with pals.
RIP Austin...
