I am so sorry for your loss. Travis was one of the kindest people I know. He and I often shared conversations about work and everyday life. I used to ask him for advice about cooking a Tri-tip and he would make it sound so easy. I will miss him dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with you. God bless.

I would like say first, that I send my deepest condolences to the Richard family. May God wrap his Loving arms around each and everyone of you during this time and sorrow. Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful, caring and kind man as Travis! I'm gonna miss riding on the bus, going down the road and talking about how he was going to go fishing and how he was gonna cook it up!! It always sounded so delicious! I'm also gonna miss him talking 'bout going to the Casinos and his good and bad luck stories! Travis will be very missed and never forgotten! Respects, Lynn Downum-Hanzal
