Awesome Austin Melville

WSU MASS-COMM. Staff ( Prof. O'Callaghan ) and  students ( Andrea ), THANK YOU for sharing Austin's story. 
Thank you for your care , concern and love of our Austin.  The actions of this worthless previous DUI offender have been horrific and devastating.  He took the most precious individual away due to irresponsible behavior and choices.  Austin had worked hard and had such a promising life ahead of him.  Thank you for your hard work and gracious time in honor and memory of our most AWESOME AUSTIN !!  He would be SOOOO mad knowing what got taken from him, so we need to be his voice and need to keep the memory of Austin alive in fighting the CANCER of drunk driving.  Austin would not want us to sit on our hands.  Thank you for the honor and memory you shared of Austin with this educational, informational and touching production !!
Sandy, Proud MOM of AWESOME AUSTIN MELVILLE !!
