Tamara, Tina and family,
Angie and I were shocked to hear that Travis had passed. I remember helping him with math and then how proud he was to introduce us to Tamara and the family the last time we saw them. We know these are the hardest of hard times, but the love and strength of Jesus will get you all through.

Tina & Tamra,
My thoughts and prayers are with both of you at his time!! I think back and remember Travis tromping behind me through the woods and me teaching him how to hunt. My heart aches for you Tina and for you Tamra! My heart aches for the loss of my friend Travis! But we are assured by the Lord, that today he is in paradise with George and my daddy! What a glorious reunion it must be and we are also assured that we will all be together again!
I love both of you and will see you soon!
~In Christ,

Tina and family:
You and your family are in my prayers, and the prayers of all my family, at this time. I remember Travis as just a little boy (at dance recitals)playing in the funeral home with my kids. The whole Shughrou and Spivey families meant so much to the Massey family over the years, memories I will never forget.
May God Bless you all in the coming days and in the future.

Tina,
Words cannot express how deeply sorry I was to hear of Travis's death. I fondly remember the closeness you all shared as a family and the times we all spent together at Red Cross.

As you and your family walk this last mile in faith, know that Travis is with the Lord and that the memories and lives he touched while on loan to us here on Earth will always be cherished.

May you be blessed with memories of him through your two beautiful grandchildren and his wife. I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers and am only a phone call away.

May God forever bless and keep you,

Sallie Boyles
