Austin most recently worked as a conductor for BN Railroad and truly enjoyed his work. Austin was also a proud member of the Minatare Fire Department.
Austin had an outgoing and friendly personality. He always took the time to stop and talk with people he knew or share a take-your-breath-away hug. He was a selfless person who cared deeply about the people in his life. He was fiercely protective and hated to see others sad or struggling. Austin loved spending time with friends and family and was a wonderful uncle to his nieces and nephews. He liked to play and roughhouse with them whenever he got the chance. Austin shared many special moments with his family, like becoming an uncle for the first time with Logan, camping with Kali’s family, or eating almost all of his Grandma’s blackberry pie. Austin was an avid Husker fan, loved to fish and hunt, and had an affinity for cool vehicles. He was incredibly proud of his new pickup.
