Austin is the beloved infant son of Cody Soliben and Michaela Frana of Woodriver, IL; grandson of Dawn Finke of Collinsville, IL, Delisa (Gary) Tuck of Troy, IL and Troy Frana of Springfield, MO; great grandson of Gary (Nenita) Finke of Glen Carbon, IL, Bonnie French and Darlene Frana both of Springfield, MO.

The family would like to thank everyone on Team Austin's fight for their support and love.

A Celebration of Life will be 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, January 13, 2019 at Barry Wilson Funeral Home, Maryville, IL.

Teardrops are falling. We embrace this sad day.
A sweet little baby has just passed away.
So perfect his spirit, so perfect his love,
So perfect a gift from a Father above.
