Travis Hover Obituary

Visit the McDougal Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.

Travis Ronald Hover, born on April 8, 1988, in Bountiful, Utah passed away on October 5, 2024, in Draper, Utah. He was a beloved son, brother, and father, known for his sharp wit and playful sense of humor. Travis was fiercely protective of his loved ones and found joy in teasing those he cared about, often expressing his affection with a cheeky gesture using his middle finger.

Travis was an accomplished plumber, but his greatest pride came from being a devoted father to his son, Gage. His hobbies included hunting, dirt biking, target shooting, camping, and fishing, with the mountains holding a special place in his heart as his favorite escape. A marksman with sniper-level efficiency, Travis earned respect for his skills in the great outdoors.

He was a passionate fan of Blink 182 and the classic rock he grew up listening to with his dad Bret Hover. Travis had a particular fondness for a BBQ steak, enjoying meals that brought everyone he loved together.

Travis has reunited with his beloved father "The Hove" and his little buddy Drake. He is fishing with his grandpa "Pops" and making his grandma smile.

He is survived by his mother, Kim Hover, his brother, Nick Hover, his son, Gage Hover, his forever partner Brittania Younger, Mamma Deb, Grandma Vicki, aunts and uncles: Randy and Carolyn Hover, Micheal and Jill Jones, Rick and Connie Jones, Sheri and Michael Love, Shawn and Debbie Jones, Tanna Wendel, and many cousins who loved him like a brother.

Travis's playful spirit and loving nature will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

There will be a public viewing on Tuesday, October 15, 2024, from 6 - 8 PM at McDougal Funeral Home located at 4330 South Redwood Road, Taylorsville, Utah.
