Travis was a great man and true friend. He will be missed terribly by his Masonic family.

Dear Sandi and kids,
When God sends an angel to bring one of his children home he chooses the very best. Always remember on a warm sunny day when a wisp of wind blows your hair and a sweet fragrence fills the air it's your angel from heaven coming by to be with you for just a little while. I believe in my heart our loved ones are not really very far away. If he pops into your mind for no reason at all or a song catches you by surprise smile he's with you and letting you know in the only way he can, "I'm just on the other side watching over you."
In Christ Service,
Evelyn

My first memory of Travis was at a dance at Bethel 5. He was still a Demolay then. Since before I can remember he has been a big brother to me and a great inspiration. He taught us all so much and will be greatly missed.

March 4, 2013

You were the perfect example of what a person should be. Giving to others unselfishly, supporting youth who needed guidance. Your pranks were awesone and I still remember the mustand in my bed years ago. My son said your a legacy, what a tribute for another Demolay brother to say you are what I want to be! We will miss your smile, your pranks but know that Heaven is surely a great place today. We love you and miss you - Sandy Riley

Travis it has been a long time ago that our paths had crossed. But as a brother you made a difference in many lifes and when you gave of yourself like that, no man can take that away from those that you served. You will be missed by all who knew you and who's paths that you had crossed. We all were so blessed to have known you even if it was for a short time and long ago. May God receive you with open arms and say "son, job well done." To the Fast Family may God hold you tight and give you strength during this time and comfort you with love.
