My wife, mother and I had the pleasure of meeting Travis in 1996 during a four day celebration of what would have been Buddy Holley's 60th birthday. We drove to Lubbock from Winnipeg Canada for the event and we're so well received by Lubbock, Travis and Larry. Thank you. You're always in our hearts.

My sincere condolences to the family and loved ones of Mr. Travis Holley. I am only acquainted with Mr. Holley as a fan of his younger brother, Buddy. It was well documented that Travis taught Buddy his first guitar chords, so Mr. Travis Holley made a great contribution to the world that was blessed by the music of Buddy Holly. But reading messages from those who knew him personally, he made a greater impact as a fine Christian man, so I pay my respects to that attribute. In closing, and with hopes the Holley family reads this, the music of Charles Hardin Holley is the ONLY music that I ever heard where the minute you hear it, Buddy is there. More than Elvis, the Beatles, Johnny Cash or Hank Williams. Mr. Travis Holley, and Larry Holley, sparked the flame that became Buddy Holly. May God bless and keep you.

Travis was a blessing to our entire family. He always had a smile and hug for us. We loved hearing you sing, Travis! No one loved the Lord Jesus Christ more than Travis, and he shared that with everyone he met. Prayers of comfort and peace for his entire family.
We will see you again, Travis!
Love,
Mary Ann and Phil Lindsey

The Holley's are my favorite All American Family, the ones you see on tv that make you want to say, man I wish I was part of their family.. Truly a blessing and a pleasure to me in my life. There are not enough words to describe just how wonderful they are. All of them with many wonderful qualities and many talents.. Their hearts and God- like nature warm my heart. Travis will be missed by all of us, but he left us with many wonderful memories, God bless you Travis, I hope you and Buddy and Elvis are having fun doing Christmas songs up there, your beautiful mother Ella is probably on the piano I bet. And thanks to Jesus, we will all see you again, and that is where I find comfort and a smile.. Love to you all...

Travis was a blessing to me in my younger years when he taught me in Sunday School and was a good Christian friend. I pray for comfort for all the family. It is a blessing to have the comfort of knowing that one we have loved and lost is now at home with his LORD!
