Dear Tanya and family,
Our deepest sympathies on the tragic passing of Travis.
Travis was a valued and respected member of the WestVic family. We will miss his vast knowledge, can do attitude, cheeky smile and very dry sense of humour – especially under high pressure situations.
There wasn’t anything he couldn’t fix or at least get going for us to get us out of a tricky situation. We cannot image what life will be like for you and your family without Travis, he will be sorely missed by all of us.
From Brant and all at WestVic Waste & Recycling

What a gentleman we came upon from our first dinner out with Travis and Tanya. We will remember all those times we spent with you on our many trips to Warrnambool for summer holidays. From the start of your relationship with Tanya we knew you were the one for her. The spark between you was so bright. We admired your amazing work ethic and drive and your smart witty stories which made us laugh. We could see how much you loved your children and being a father was always your pride and joy. Being there for your wedding to Tanya will remain our most favourite memory of such a special day we were privileged to be part of. How we loved seeing your love for Tanya blossom over the years. We promise to look out for her and cherish your memory. You made a home you were so proud of and all who came were welcomed with open arms. Our deepest sympathies on the tragic loss of Travis. Know we are there for you Tan. We are thinking of you Carly, Justin, Jacob and step children Ella and Harry. Our love to you all at this difficult time. Love from Suze, Jason & Ella White ❤️
