Terry Austin's Obituary
Terry Austin was born in Dallas Texas on March 4, 1958 to Pauline and Murrell Austin. He was proud to say he grew up in Oak Cliff. He was an amazing all around artist. A graphic designer by trade Terry could play any instrument you put in front of him, paint and write. He taught his kids and grand kids a love and appreciation of all music. Those who loved him will remember him through his never ending smile. His “therapy” sessions with the OC Band are a thing of legend. He never met an enemy, and was known as the most loyal friend you could ever have.
Terry is preceded in death by his parents. He is survived by his wife Mary Austin. Terry’s legacy will live on through his four children Kevin, Nathan, Crystal, and Nicole. He was also a proud grandfather of Ashlee, Allee, Angela, Samantha, Gavin, Xander, Peyton, and Bella. Daughter-in-Law Stephanie and Son-in-Law Charles. He was happy that he would soon be adding Nicole Andrews and her son Skylar to the Austin family.
