Travis Underwood

I don't even know where to begin. Darrin, my heart is breaking for and with you. Travis was like another son to me. He helped with my kids he loved them like they were his own even the ones that weren't related to him and even after we all went our separate ways. Travis was FUNNNN-NNEEE!! OMG his sense of humor was unprecedented! I SO LOVED HIM!! He would work at night and babysit my kids during the day while I worked. He lived with me for a season and he was just the best blessing EVERRRR!! He brought me so much joy! All of my kids thoroughly loved, enjoyed, treasured and cherished him. He would make me so mad and hide the belt when it was time for me to whoop my kids. Or he would kidnap them and keep them all day until he thought I calmed down. He would grab me and hug me subliminally bullying me to keep me from whipping my kids and say he was just giving me a hug. He watched over and protected us. He will give me his last dollar in his last dime. Travis is survived by me and all my family who still considered him as part of our family. We all grew up together and I've known him since he was so little. I loved the way he used to pronounce Darrin's name. It sounded like he was saying "dar-n" hahaha!! I can't even express all the wonderful fun loving memories of with and Travis. He was "SPECIAL" in every kind of way. There are no words to share that could even remotely describe how much of a help he was to me and my kids and the impact and influence he had on them in my life. He was a perfect gentleman a great uncle the best big brother & father figure to my kids. He fathered them he nurtured them he loved them he comforted them and he stuck with me through thick and thin the good the bad and the ugly. He slept on the couch in my one bedroom apartment and he would take my kids places play ball with them and stay up all day after having worked all night to go to their school functions take them to doctor's appointments for me and just be there for any and everything that I needed. It's not a space in my whole being that could be filled by the void left from him being gone. The depth width and height of the cry of my heart the deep grief in my soul roars like thunder in my wailing and weeping for his life. I miss him. I miss him dearly. I love him. I love him dearly.

Travis will be greatly missed. His infectious smile and laughter was contagious! His kindness and thoughtfulness was a beautiful expression of his character. My condolences to Darren. May the Lord surround you with His Comforting Presence giving you peace during this difficult time. Love & Hugs

Siblings are so special and yours was exceptional. Prayers for peace and comfort during this time.

"My deepest condolences during this difficult time, I will miss that smile and our chats every morning.
