He tried a few different jobs but always gravitated to computers. Then he went to work for Prier Tire Supply in the warehouse, but more importantly as the resident computer guru. He had lived in Golden all of his life. Austin enjoyed playing video games on the computer with his friends, writing poems and singing songs. He loved his dog, Sammie, and cat, Clint. Austin will be missed by all who knew and loved him. He was a member of Blue Eye Baptist Church.

Surviving are his parents, Jeff and Mandi Prier of Golden; paternal grandparents, Winfred and LeeOna Prier of Golden; maternal grandparents, Gerald Summers of Golden and Linda Bowie of Bergman, Arkansas and brothers, Adam Prier and wife Andrea Mata of Springfield and Andrew Prier of Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
