Travis was an amazing person. I did not see him much but the times I did share with him at family cookouts and our high school years were so much fun! He could brigheten any room he stepped in. But the one thing I will always remember him for are the hugs he gave, everytime you would see him a hug wasn't far behind! Thank you Travis for the fun you shared with all of us. You will never be forgotten! Your a firework! XOXOXO To all of the family! My prayers are with you!

To Harold and family:
I know so many of us at East Coast are hurting over Travis' passing. Reading through the different messages, over and over again comments are made about the smile on his face. I know I will miss that smile and more miss that young man who always gave 100% to everything he did. I can't begin to imagine the pain and suffering the family is going through. My family will continue to pray each day for each of you. God Bless you all and I hope you can soon find peace.

Harold, "Mom", and Family:
I was shocked and saddened to hear of Travis' passing. I was so hoping to see Travis' smiling face pop into the office one day and tell us he was coming back to work here. He had such a light and always made me laugh. I have never met anyone who loved their grandparents as much as he did. My heart aches for all of his family and friends. . . We are all better for having known Travis. "To be so young, he gave so much, but angels always do."

Amy, My heart is breaking for you, I hope you know many many people are thinking of you and praying for you. What I remember most about Travis is everytime I would see him at Debbie and Steves house he would always greet me with a big hug and would be telling the boys about his latest project either working on a car or truck, he always had something going on. The other is the several occasions I saw him out with you having dinner or shopping, Travis loved his mom! Keep the sweet memories in your heart.

Truly a treasure lost by so many too early to imagine as I keep looking around to see him smiling with his mom, I am very truly sorry for the loss that his family endures

Amy and family:

I am so sorry to hear of Travis' passing. He made me laugh each time I saw him. I remember when he called me up and pretended to be a man I had just met. I was on the phone with him for 5 minutes before he confessed who it was! He did indeed, touch many lives. You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
