Peter Travis Obituary
Peter M. Travis "Trapper"
Jul. 27, 1949-Aug. 5, 2009
Pete attended Mountlake Terrace High School in the graduating class of 1967.
Pete loved baseball, but no team more than the New York Yankees. He could tell you any stats on any team. He mostly loved the 1961 Yankees. Pete volunteered as a Little League Umpire. Pete had also volunteered much of his time to the Volunteers of America.
Pete was survived by family and friends including, father, Lee Jr.; daughter, Piper; sister, Darlene (Arnold); brothers, Lee III (Sherri), and Tom (Tammy); along with many nephews and nieces. He also leaves his dear friend, Monika.
Pete was preceded in death by his wife, Michelle; daughter, Bree; mother, Virginia; and step-mother, JoAnne.
A Memorial will be held at 11 a.m., on Saturday, August 15, 2009, at the Mill Creek Community Church, 16415 North Road, Mill Creek, WA 98012. A small lunch and celebration will follow the service. Internment will take place at a later date. Please visit telfordschapel.com for his memorial page.
You were loved by so many, and we will never forget you. Goodbye Peter.

To the Travis family, we are so sorry for the loss of Pete. We lived on La Pierre Dr in Mountlake Terrace, across from your house- (which tells you we haven't seen the family in a very long time); but hearing of Pete's passing was so sad. From what I hear there will be many, many happy memories of Pete. With deep sympathy, the Cisneros family.

Pete was part of our family gatherings for the past several years. He always had a cheerful attitude and greeted everyone in our family like he was one of the gang. Always had nice things to say and funny one-liners. 'We', his other family in Wenatchee are still in shock over his death and hope one day we can figure it all out. Thanks for sharing Pete with us.

To the Travis Family - Lee & Sherri: Remembering Peter from the good old 70's era to the last time I saw him he still could keep the crowd in stitches with that personality of his.
I imagin he is keeping the spirits entertained right now and those he left behind even though saddened at this time Peter will not let us forget him.
