Bonnie & family,
I just went to facebook and just saw that Travis passed away this morning. I am so very sorry for all of you! I know your hearts are broken and will be praying for peace for you. He will be very much missed by all of you. So many memories of Travis & Brad when he would come to our house. I always remember the time they decided to walk up the creek to the Horseman’s Camp and I had no idea where they had gone. Needless to say I was very upset but I finally found them after much searching. Lots of memories playing baseketball also. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.
