Dear Family Members,
I live too far away to be present at the funeral but wanted to share some words which I wrote on Facebook. The grief is immeasurable and there is no way to stop the pain.

Thank-you for sharing your beautiful son for a short time with me. I was his Art Instructor at Hyde Leadership.

A Tribute for Travis Ward:

His death was another bullet killing another great young man. The bullet, all of us who knew Travis, know could/would/should not have been meant for him. Yet, now he is gone, but his presence within us all is stronger than ever.

Even in high school, Travis was a great man. He was an artist and remained so. When he walked into class, his tall, good looking, sincere character took the lead. No matter how crazy life had made his peers on a given day, he would set them straight. He wanted to learn everything and would not tolerate disturbing attitudes. Travis was the purest of spirits.

Flashing back on conversations, he instinctively knew the world which surrounded him may someday be his end.

Those of us who knew Travis Ward are now filled with more grief and sadness. We try to take solace in our beliefs. I believe in a better dimension. I believe Travis Ward, an angel in life, is on his way there.
