W. C. Austin
Inscription
W.C. Austin
Whose Life was completely
dedicated to the service of his God,
His Country, His Community and His
Fellow Man. Who never turned away
from a call for his helping hand.
Who asked as his reward for
accomplishment only another chance
to serve. Loved and respected by all
who had the privilege of knowing
him, the citizens of Oklahoma united
in dedicating to him this monument
and the irrigation works comprising
the project which now so rightly
bears his name.
