So many wonderful memories of Travis "and the guys" when in our home. We could always count on Travis for a warm greeting, bear hug, infectious laugh, and ear to ear smile. His long friendship with Jeremy is priceless. The numerous trips Travis and Rachel made to visit Jeremy in Minnesota meant so much and will be cherished by Jeremy, always. Travis was blessed with a personality that was easy and enjoyable to be around. We always looked forward to conversing with him about his work, latest ventures, and family. He was such a proud daddy and we, so very much, enjoyed hearing about his, and Rachel's, glorious children. May Owen, Eli, and Myla grow up knowing, and may all Travis' family know Travis touched the lives of many with his goodness. Our deepest sympathy, prayers, and condolences to all Travis' family and friends.
