I think about you every day man, I wish you were here so I could just call you up and hear your voice. You were such a good friend to me all throughout the toughest years of my life. You’re such an amazing person, Austin. If anyone truly deserved happiness and peace, it was you. I love you man. I hope I see you again one day.

I'm going to miss always chatting with you. Anytime we saw each other, you always welcomed me. Going to conventions aren't going to feel the same anymore, because I won't be able to joke around with you and compare our hand sizes and get a huge hug. I miss you so much, Panda

Kind. Sweet. Respectful. Loving. Well-mannered. Those are all of the words that I can use to describe Austin. Austin attended the school where I worked and I was blessed to see him as a young man when he would come to pick up his siblings. I extend my deepest and sincerest condolences to his family. Austin was one of the best young men I had the pleasure of meeting and watch grow.

I worked with Austin when he worked at Amazon. And in the short time I knew him he was really a kind hearted and nice person. He always put a smile on my face and he gave me one of his amazon pins and now I will never look at it the same or give it away. I will always cherish it because he was such a good person and I will always remember him. Prayers to his family and friends in this tough time.

I'm sad that you're gone panda, you were in my first friend group when I moved down here many years ago. You have such a kind soul and was always sweet to everyone. I miss your hugs and our conversations at high-school and at vols state. I'm so sorry we lost touch after awhile. I miss you dearly

Panda you where an amazing friend. Always brought a smile to my face with how amazing of a person you are. I remember us going to mtac together for the first time. I'll always remember our time together. Rest well my friend.

Austin you were such a great guy. You always seem to put a smile on everyone's face. My first memory of you was when we had history class together freshman year with Coach O. You sat right next to Xena and I. I remember you introduced yourself to us; saying that your name is Austin but you like to go by Panda. I always enjoyed the long talks at the bus stop after school; and trying to get people to lose "The Game". I'm glad we had art class together and I and others were able to watch you art skills improve. Rest in peace Austin.

Austin was such a a warm, loving person, with a beautiful and kind soul. I'll forever miss him and his giant hugs and witty sense of humor. He was one of the sweetest people. I ever met. It's such a shame. Rest in peace Austin.

Words can not describe how big of an impact you made in my life. When I met you back in college you filled my days with laugher and fun. You quickly became a close friend of mine, the memories we made I will cherish and keep close to my heart for all time. Panda you were a true friend and I will never forget you. You may be gone but you will never be forgotten. Rest easy my friend.

Austin was a beautiful human being. Always inclusive and always willing to listen. I love you man rest in piece.

Rest in paradise long live Austin

Love and light Austin rest in heaven
