Travis had a passion for music, Star Wars, fishing, and family. Travis was a man of many words and many jokes. He always had a laugh ready for anyone who would listen and a twinkle of mischief in his eyes. He had a terrible sense of humor which he was very proud to have passed on to his children. He left behind a large family who misses him terribly.
The family invites donations in Travis’ name to the American Diabetes Association in lieu of flowers.

My heartfelt sympathy and prayers go out to the family as you grieve and at the same time celebrate his life. Much love, Maryellen Flesher
Travis was a wonderful man. I enjoyed the short period of time I got to know him and spend cracking jokes and laughing.Will miss him last time I got to see him we shared an ciggarette, hug , and some tears with his story of love. I will miss him.
It was the greatest times at work taking care of Travis and getting to know him and his family!! I felt like part of the family and my heart is heavy seeing this news as I’ve been away from work on maternity leave and didnt get another chance to see him! My sincerest condolences!
He was one of my favorite patients! Go too soon! May your soul Rest In Peace Travis! My sincere condolences to your wife!
Travis was also one of my favorite patients and I am terribly saddened to hear this news. He and Lani were the sweetest people- they always made sure to give me snacks when I was pregnant with my son. He would always crack jokes to make my crazy days at work a little brighter. My deepest condolences to Lani and the rest of his family.
My dad was an amazing man, last I talked to him i video chatted him cause my strut blew on my van he told me the problem how to fix it and the danger in compressing the spring and how to do it safely, im glad I was able to give him the gift of naming my third son after him Aenimus Travis Apollo Elliott, I could tell it brought a world of joy to him. I’ll love you and cherish you eternally without you a whole generation wouldn’t have been here and all made it to adult hood. You were the best father anyone could ask for. I love you and I’ll see you in the stars. May the force be with you!
I never got to meet travis in person. We had video chatted and he’d message me randomly and made my day. He had a good heart and I wish I would’ve got the chance to get to know him better and for him to get to meet his grandson Aenimus.
Uncle Craig and I are sorry for your loss I Will always remember him as a cute little boy
Travis was one of my patients (a favorite one of course) off and on over the last year that I will always remember. Even during his own struggles he put others first and was always thoughtful. In his darkest moments he continued to show courage. On his roughest days he still found a way to make others laugh with his jokes and stories. His smile was from his heart and was one of the best smiles ever!! Thru lots of conversations one thing was evident…he loved his family. He spoke of his mom, of course Lani and Tali and all his children. You didn’t have to talk long with him to see how much he loved all of them. Even if it was all he had to give, he would give anyone the shirt off his back. My sincere condolences to his family and all his loved ones. R.I.P. Travis and keep smiling dude!!!
Grace and I would like to extend our deepest sympathies to the family. There just aren’t words to express how much we feel for everyone, keeping everyone in our thoughts and prayers
