Travis worked as the D.O.N. at Park Plaza Nursing Center for 20 years and was passionate about ensuring his residents had the best care available. Travis had the amazing ability to see someone's true worth and would often guide them towards their full potential. He went above and beyond everyday to make sure his staff and residents had everything they needed. Travis had an astonishing intellect and always had an answer for any problem life threw your way. He enjoyed challenging problems, solving puzzles, tinkering with gadgets, and repairing items. However, Travis's true passion was education, not only for himself but for others. He was at his best when teaching people new skills or imparting wisdom towards obstacles. A part of his light is instilled in everyone he guided; he will truly be missed.
