Oh, Sue and Steve. Our hearts are breaking for the loss you and the rest of the members of your family are experiencing. We will be praying for God to let all of you feel Him holding you close, to comfort you, and help you all through this time of grief.
I’m praying for God’s sufficient grace, his new mercies, surpassing peace, and comfort. And I have faith to know he will do this for you as you face the loss of Travis.
You are in our prayer right now in this time of unspeakable loss. We are trusting God for comfort today and in all the days ahead. Travis was/is a sweet, thoughtful, creative young man. Much beloved.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We reflect back on the time Travis joined his cousins at the Camp. What a great time he had exploring and swimming. The kids helped install a bench and initialed the concrete footers. May you find peace at this time in our Lord.
Travis you will always be in my heart! ❤️

Cammie and the rest of the Allens are so very sorry for your loss. Travis was such a special person and such a wonderful improv partner for Cammie. Much love to you and sorry not to be able to attend the funeral in person.
I am so sorry to hear about Travis. It sounds like he was a funny and talented young man. I will be thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers. I did not know Travis at CSZ but I do have boys his age and I do know how much the CSZ “bug” can infect you and help you to reason with the real world at times. You are so kind to think of them. I hope you are able to find peace and comfort in the coming months and please know you have a big extended family of support out here.
