Trav I really don't know what to say. Before we grew up we were best friends. We shared everyday every holiday every memory together. We always fought, like any true brother and sister do. But you were always my hero. I was in invinsible with u by my side. I was and still am so proud of you. I ask myself everyday how I will do it without you. But then I know even if I can't hear your cheeky laugh, feel ur strong embrace or have you telling me not to be stupid... Ur still here with me. Protecting me and filling my heart with love. I love you bro.... Not even the trees xxxx

Trav. I struggle to know what to say. We were best mates. Before we grew up we spent every day every holiday and every memory together. We fought like only true brother and sister do. But you were always my hero. I know you're still here with me everyday, watching over me, protecting me, telling me to stop being stupid when necessary. I wish I could truly remember the moments we had as kids but I have photos to remind me. Our older days are scars now moments I'll never ever forget. I miss the simplest things. If only we could hear your cheeky laugh or feel your strong embrace again. I love you Trav and miss you more with everyday. Not even the trees.... Xxxxxx

You were more then just a mate you were family and held a special spot in all our hearts,we miss you but will forever treasure the memories that we hold from your crazy antics to the more tender caring memories of you with kids.

Travis had many talents and one of these was his excellent drawing skills. This is a drawing Travis drew when he was about 13 years old. He used to go to classes in Bacchus Marsh for a year or two in his early teens.

We miss you everyday and our hearts ache for you. Not everyone was lucky enogh to see how beautiful and sensitive you were on the inside as well as the outside. We were so proud of you and just want you to know how much we miss you. You were so clever, had so many skills and talents. You were gentle and strong at the same time. You could do anything you put your mind to. You leave a gaping hole in hearts and our lives. We were so lucky to have had 30 years with you...but wished there were so many more.So many dreams and plans unfulfilled. But, we will try and see some of those plans through.( Your pergola's up!!) We love you so much Trav...our boysy!!! There must be a reason you were taken from us so soon, although we struggle every day to know WHY. Thank you to everyone that loved you and paid tribute to you. Until we meet again our gorgeous son..... LOVE FOREVER AND ALWAYS Dad and Mum xxxxxx

WATTS – Travis. You are a closely loved family member. So many beautiful things were mentioned about you; some make you laugh, some make you cry. You will never be out of our minds, just because you are out of our sight. Whatever we were to each other, we still are. Your sudden and unexpected passing seems unbearable; but our loss is truly Heaven’s gain. You will be deeply missed. Our sincere condolences go out to the families and friends of the Watts and Brigitta.
Love Tom and Ann Jonynas.
