Travis was better known as TD was a truck driver and a proud Teamster for over 35 years. He served as the shop steward for many of those years. He was a self-taught auto mechanic, electrician, plumber and home remodeler. He spent most of his after work hours working on trucks for his company, friends and family cars.

He never charged market rate for his rental houses because he said, "Poor people need a home and still need to eat." Travis lived a good life of hard work and service to his family, friends and others.

He is survived by his wife, Leona; son, David Quinn; daughter, Vicki Quinn-Williams; son-in-law, Roger Williams; sister, Deborah Johnson (Raymond Johnson); grandsons, Chris and Nicholas Williams; granddaughters, Kelsey Hendricks and Kaley Perry. He is also survived by two great-grandsons, as well as several nieces and nephews.
