It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Travis Joseph Roberts, who left this world on February 15, 2026, at the age of 40.
In his early years, Travis was known for his natural warmth and ability to connect with others. He had a gift for conversation and a presence that made people feel seen and welcomed. Whether among family, friends, or new acquaintances, he carried an ease and confidence that drew people in. Those who knew him during those years remember his initiative, his charisma, and the sense that his life held bright promise.
After graduating, Travis moved away to pursue new opportunities. As life unfolded, he faced personal struggles that distanced him from many who loved him. Though those years created space and silence between him and family, he was never forgotten and never unloved.
Like many, Travis’ journey was marked by both strength and struggle. His story reminds us that life can take unexpected turns, and that compassion, prayer, and grace are needed for us all.
He is survived by his mother, Janet Roberts and many of his family and friends who are saddened by this loss. May he rest in peace, and may those who loved him find comfort in the memories of the light he once carried.
