Austin James Robinson passed away on Saturday, February 26 in Lubbock, Texas. He was 22 years old. Austin was born in Dallas on November 30, 1988. He attended Vaughan Elementary, Ford Middle School, and Allen High School. He was a proud member of the Allen High School Eagle Band and the Texas Tech Goin' Band. Austin was a Music Education major at Texas Tech University, working on a Master's degree with Honors. He was an accomplished bassoonist and pianist and hoped one day to share his passion for music by teaching students. He studied piano under George Variames in Allen and bassoon under Marjorie Kirsch in Wylie. At Texas Tech he studied with Richard Meek. Austin had just begun student teaching at a middle school in Lubbock, and loved working with the students there. Music teachers and directors change students' lives. Our son's teachers certainly did.
