William ''Bill'' AUSTIN Obituary
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of William Austin, a beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend. Born on August 19, 1948, in Oklahoma, William tragically left us on August 5, 2024, in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the age of 75.
William pursued a career as a Fleet Manager in the construction industry having worked for Ready-Mix retiring in 2008. He dedicated his life to his work, always striving for excellence and leaving a lasting impact on all those he encountered.
William is survived by his loving spouse, Shelia Austin, who meant the world to him. Together, they shared a bond that will continue to live on in our hearts. They started their family with the birth of son, Jay Austin and later welcomed son, David. He and Shelia also expanded their hearts with Bill's daughter from a prior marriage, Tammy Lynn Austin.
Bill loved to water ski, and was a licensed pilot loving to fly, rebuild classic cars, go to the NASCAR races, and raced his own cars at the Speedway. He and Shelia loved to dance to County music. He loved his grandchildren and spending time with them: Alexis, Briana, Hunter and Madison.
