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)
