| (...) This f****** sucks. Sorry, that's my first reaction. Like a lot of others had mentioned, I met Travis for the first time at BF last year and I was impressed by both him and his creations. My condolences go out to his family and to the AFOLs (...) (22 years ago, 25-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.space, FTX)

| I too never met Travis in person. I only knew him from his posts here and talking to him in the chat rooms. He was a great guy and his Moc's were inspirational. I am really going to miss the 80's T.V. hover cars he did. Those were awesome. I think (...) (22 years ago, 25-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.space, FTX)

| I don't know what to say. Travis was like the sun, shining brightly for all to see. It was hard to lurk in the shadows when he was around, because his light would reach into the darkest of corners. Thank you Travis for sharing that light with me. (...) (22 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.space, FTX)

|
| (...) This hits me particularly hard, not because I knew Travis well (in fact, we never met) but because his work was such constant inspiration and I never said so. Just the other day he posted his most recent Syd Mead style Blade Runner-ish vehicle (...) (22 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.space, lugnet.general, FTX)

We're all shocked, and sad, and even those of us who (mostly) lurk in .space could not have helped but be touched just by seeing Travis's work and dedication to this (...)

| | | | | Remembering Travis - His favorite piece
|
| Hi Everyone, I chatted with Travis online every day. We shared many online jokes that were known really to only a few of us. I tried to think of something people could wear, like a ribbon or T shirt or some such, to remember Travis. But those all (...) (22 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.general, FTX) !!

I also loved to see his creative approaches of the brick in his (...) (22 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.space, FTX)

| I met him this past summer at BF. Great guy. This is not fair. I don't like it when someone with great ideas and imagenation leaves. I am guessing someone 'upstairs' loved and enjoyed his models as much as we all did. This is sad news. I know this (...) (22 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.space, FTX)

He was kind and polite with me, very passionnate about his hobby and and can only guess he was very appreciated by those who knew him personnally. I recently used (...)
