Travis Burl Bolding passed away after a hard fought illness on July 24, 2007. He was surrounded by his family he so dearly loved and protected. Travis loved to garden, think, and contemplate. Travis appreciated irony and a sense of wryness which he found with his good friend, J.W. Goodwin. He was also considered one of the best steel guitar players in the country. His all-time favorite moment was accompanying Ray Price.

Travis attended Howard Payne Univ. at Brownwood, TX and Southeastern State Univ. at Durant where he was a member of the Phi Sigs.
Travis married Connie Chism in 1974. Their marriage, lasting a mere 33 yrs, resulted in two children. Travis learned about hard work when he was working summers for ARCO Pipeline Co. He joined the company full-time after college. He retired from ARCO in 1990 and started a new business venture with his wife.
