Growing up, Travis helped on the family chicken farm. These years of labor instilled in him an impeccable work ethic. Travis loved to go to the cattle auctions at the livestock barns in Mansfield and Armistead. He especially looked forward to attending the weekend rodeos at the Marthaville and Evelyn arenas. Travis loved the outdoors. Travis was an active member of the Pleasant Hill Chapter of the Future Farmers of America. He graduated from Pleasant Hill High School with the Class of 1976.
Travis worked for Nabors Drilling for 43 years in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Although work kept him physically far from his family, he cherished every moment with them when he was home. He especially loved being a Pawpaw to grandsons Camdyn Wheless and Draeton Sepulvado. Travis enjoyed fishing, traveling, cooking, and helping family and friends in his leisure time. He was extraordinarily generous in life, and at his passing. His final gift was possible with the LOPA Foundation through organ, tissue, and eye donation.
