"Christy, I will always remember Austin! He was a strong Christian that loved the Lord. Not only did he love the Lord, he lived what he professed. Austin knew he had a mansion in heaven waiting for him when his journey was over here. I can honestly say his character is what made him "Jolly" that suited him. Everyone will miss him at work, he was one of the few that never complained, he was a dedicated worker, a good man! May God strengthen you in the coming days and comfort you! He is home, well and whole! Love you, Pat Abercrombie"
