I didn't know Travis as well as others. We were friends in high school. He treated me with respect and kindness. He was accepting of who I was. And that was somewhat rare back then. We joked and shared stories any time we were around each other. We didn't hang out outside of school, but I did very little of that with anyone; I was almost always working after school. I only saw him once after high school, passing in the road on Old Chalkbed Road, or maybe Connector Road. I turned around to try to catch him, but I was too slow, lol. I never heard anything about him again until I saw him on the news. It just dawned on me a few minutes ago, thats two friends I've lost like this. That's why I'm here now. God please don't let me lose anymore! No more please! It hurts too damn much to lose friends this way! It wasn't too much longer after passing him in road that day, that I left for the Marines. I'm sorry I couldn't catch up with you Travis! But I will catch up with you one day. The world was a better place with you here, and a much lesser place without you, but it is just the world, it is just a road to a greater destination. You are loved, missed, and remembered. Til Valhalla Brother! Sincerely, Bill Whaley. AKA William, AKA Billy, AKA Willy.

As I sit back and think of all the years we spent knowing each other I thank God for souls intertwining. You were my brothers best friend and because of that friendship your sister and I became best friends. You became another big brother to me and I thank God for all the moments we spent together and all the fun we had together. I love you Travis and you will be missed dearly. Your pain is gone and your wings are flying high my dear brother. I love you until forever!
