Hello, it is with great sorrow that I send this out. My brother Travis passed away on Monday, September 22, 2025.

My family and I are mourning the loss of our brother. For my mom, she lost her son. For four his children, they lost their dad. Cause of death was sudden heart failure. He was found by his two sons, who are 18 and 22, already passed in their home. I'm grateful to say my brother, Shayne, and our step brother, Justin, flew out to Texas to help and support our mom and Travis's kids in the handlings and next steps. We want to make this transition for the kids as smooth as possible and get them all the support we can.

My brother Travis and his kids, along with my mom, live in Southeast Texas. We are on a time limit since the autopsy was performed, with a little over a week to have his body moved. I am going to fly out there to be present at the ceremony and get closure and I have been able to arrange my means to get to Texas but we need all the help we can get for my two nephews who are now having to worry about how they will pay rent and funeral costs, and for his two daughters, 16 and 25, so they can all get the closure they deserve.

I really don't feel comfortable asking for anything, but I have no other option than to at least try. I want nothing more right now than the chance to be in Texas with my family to honor my brother and mourn his passing, but most importantly, for his children to be able to move on with their lives and not let this hinder their future

Anything helps! Thank you so much either way.
