Austin was my maternal Grandfather. I never knew him because he dies long before I was born. His wife Carrie, my grandmother lived with us until her death in January 1972. I was 12 and connected to her hip! She was the best! I miss her still to this day and I am 60! She was around 76 at the time of her death.
