Travis... what can I say, my friend? We shared so many incredible memories together. From National Parks and camping trips to Music festivals and sporting events. No matter where we roamed, Travis never failed to make people laugh. He had an uncanny ability to make friends everywhere he went and strike up conversations that always brought smiles to peoples faces. Trav never turned down an adventure. We drove to nearly every corner of the country together and there was never a dull moment. For that I will always be grateful. The memories and stories left with me will no doubt last my lifetime. Until we meet again... Rest easy, my friend.
My deepest sympathy to Donna, Chris, Tony and Trav's countless loved ones.

Donna and Chris; I sincerely don't know what to say to make this tragedy less painful. All I can do is offer my prayers to help you get through this unbearable time. Donna, I would love to give you a big hug like the last time I saw you so here it is.....HUG! I just can't imagine, just please don't give up hope and thankfully you and Chris have each other. PM me on Facebook any time you want to talk or get together. I saw a saying this weekend that is so appropriate at this time, when God gives you more than you can stand....kneel.
Thoughts and prayers,
Gail & Rob Lambert
Will remember Travis sitting in the middle of my kitchen island and all of Donna's BFF surrounded him. My heart aches for my friends thoughts and prayers.
We will always remember and love Travis with his kind smile and caring personality. Our hearts go out to all who love him.
