Austin Mayfield Obituary
Austin was welcomed into this world on January 3rd, 1987 by Denise (Mother), Lewis (Father), and Shane (Brother) in Maquoketa, IA. He grew up in Davenport and attended primary school at Johnson Elementary and Holy Family. He was an outstanding athlete and a student. His talents were best seen on the football field where you would witness his incredible strength working in concert with his competitive intensity. After he graduated from Assumption High School, he attended Saint Ambrose, then went on to make contributions to the workforce. He met the love of his life Ali (wife) in 2013, shortly after they were married. Austin and Ali's love blossomed and blessed this world with 3 children: Ava (Daughter), Ana (Daughter), and Apollo (Son). He enjoyed the company of his family and took pride in the care he provided. Austin continued to enjoy the thrill of competition by participating in various running events and frequently training with his partner Ali.
I cannot author the words to show his impact on those he knew, however, I can steal this excerpt from poet, Edgar Allen Poe:
"But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Austin Mayfield"
Austin was preceded in death by his grandfather (Lewis) and is survived by his wife (Ali), three children (Ava, Ana, Apollo), his mother (Denise), father (Lewis), and brother (Shane).
Austin's life will be celebrated at the Elk's Lodge in Davenport Saturday July 15th from 11am to 3pm.
