So many wonderful memories of Travis “and the guys” when in our home. We could always count on Travis for a warm greeting, bear hug, infectious laugh, and ear to ear smile. His long friendship with Jeremy is priceless. The numerous trips Travis and Rachel made to visit Jeremy in Minnesota meant so much and will be cherished by Jeremy, always. Travis was blessed with a personality that was easy and enjoyable to be around. We always looked forward to conversing with him about his work, ventures, and family. He was such a proud daddy and we, so very much, enjoyed hearing about his, and Rachel’s, glorious children. May Owen, Eli, and Myla grow up knowing, and may all Travis’ family know Travis touched the lives of many with his goodness. Our deepest sympathy, prayers, and condolences to all Travis’ family and friends.

Im so sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with u and your family.
Brian, Bobbi and Tichenor Families, My deepest sympathies for your loss. May God comfort you. My greatest joy was being invited by Darrell to the Tichenor Royals game outing this past summer. I saw DeAnn’s extended families and how much they have grown, since the time I saw the nephews as children at Arloa’s Thanksgiving dinners. Hugs, peace and love to all.
To the family of Mr. Travis Tichenor:
I would like to express my condolences to you for the loss of your husband, son, father and brother. It seems so unfair that death should have the power to take away someone you love, especially at a young age. But the Bible teaches us at John 5:28 that those who have died will be resurrected with the opportunity to live on a paradise earth in perfect health forever. This scripture shows the deep love and heartfelt desire that God has to provide much comfort while you grieve the loss of your loved one.
Brian, Bobbi and family
Our hearts break for you in your loss. Please know we are praying for peace for your family. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you. Love you!
Kyle, Sherri and Abby
