He will be greatly missed! He amazed me how he would move around at his age! What a wonderful person he was and always had a smile. Condolences to your family.

I have treasured childhood memories of those picnics in the pasture in the 1950's and 60's. My dad, Garland Smith, was Austin's cousin, but they were like brothers and best buddies growing up together. Both were fine examples of old fashioned, true gentlemen, devoted to family. Even though my parents moved us far away (Ohio and then Arizona), they kept in touch.
Our love and condolences to Ronnie, Linda and the rest of the family.

Austin grew up with my Dad (cousin Garland), and some of my earliest childhood memories are the family reunions down by the creek along with "chicken every Sunday" in Myersville ... over 65 years ago! We were fortunate and blessed to be able to spend a memorable afternoon with Austin & family in 2014 listening to his memories of growing up with my dad and some of their shenanigans back then.
We will cherish the memories forever and, of course, our condolences to Ronnie and Linda and their...

I will always remember the wonderful picnics in the meadow. Your father was a wonderful man. Love and prayers, Angie and Mike Bland

Thoughts and Prayers to the family. We lived beside Austin for many many years. He was such a sweet and gracious man. Always had a smile for everyone.

RIP to Mr. Brandenburg. I know he came to our house many times to fix our television and antenna. We lived nearby for many years on Dawn Court in Myersville and we would always see him out and about in his yard when we drove by. A truly nice man who loved helping others

Many fond memories of visits to the farm. This city kid experienced tractor driving (sort of); hay baling, potato hauling,snakes and pecking chickens. Oh! And land mines in the meadow. There was also hog slopping and the smell of silage. Always had a great time when I visited. Grace and Brandy also provided the meadow in which I learned to stick shift my 50 Merc.

One fact omitted from Uncle Brandy's obituary was his nightly mixing bowl of ice cream (the way I remember it...

Uncle Brandy was one of my favorite relatives. So nice and personable all the time.

I recall visiting his farm when I was young, learning about his farming life and also family gatherings in the farm meadow.

Truly an outstanding man. An inspiration to all of us. He will be missed.

Prayers and condolences to Ronnie, Linda and the entire family.
