Richard Austin Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on May 16, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Richard Austin (Galena, Illinois). You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
In the echoes of fond remembrance, may a sense of peace be found, knowing that the memories held dear will continue to shape and inspire his loved ones, keeping Richard's spirit alive in the hearts and actions of family and friends alike. While his presence may be gone, his impact lives on in the kindness shown to others and the joy found in the ordinary moments of life.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his wife Hilary; his son David (Mary); his granddaughter Samantha; his sister Ruth Gallagher (Robert); his brother-in-law Peter Jones; his daughter Claire; and his parents, Lloyd Austin and Ardis Austin.
