Earlier this year we learned of the passing of former TSEA West Tennessee Vice President, Almous Austin, 85, who died on Sunday, March 29, 2020, at his residence in Newbern, Tennessee. Almous was a beloved board member and a 31-year member of TSEA.
Due to COVID-19 concerns at the time, and the family’s concern for the health and well-being of others, a celebration of life service was postponed. The celebration of Almous Austin is now scheduled for Saturday, October 17. Details are below.
Celebration of Life for Almous Wade Austin
Saturday October 17, 2020 at 1:00 PM
1039 Austin Road,
Newbern, Tennessee
Almous will be remembered as a loyal supporter of state employees by many, especially his former coworkers in the TN Department of Transportation, where he most recently served as TDOT Highway Maintenance Supervisor and where he was recognized as the oldest Tennessee state employee. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife Lolita, his family, and friends.
“Almous did great work for all state employees,” TSEA Executive Director Randy Stamps said. “He served our state well. His family members are in our daily prayers.”
