Service Details

Daniel Stephen Austin, 65, our brother on earth and in Christ peacefully passed away into the loving arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Saturday, March 8, 2025. He fought the good fight and now he is home. We love you.

Dan was born March 1, 1960, in Des Moines, Iowa to Donald and Helen (Williamson) Hildred. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in horticulture. He worked for the State of Iowa as a maintenance engineer.

Dan had a wonderful sense of humor and an arsenal of jokes that he could fire off at a moment’s notice. He loved making people laugh.

He is survived by his siblings, Karol Lee Cook and David Smith; significant other, Jeanette Shepard; and other extended family and friends.

Dan was preceded in death by his parents.

There will be a celebration of life on April 26, 2025, in Rolla, Missouri.
