Travis was a gifted artist whose creative endeavors painted a vivid picture of his passion for life. With a paintbrush in hand, he transformed canvases into masterpieces, showcasing a unique blend of colors and emotions. His artistic expression was not confined to the canvas; Travis also carved his mark on the streets and skate parks, where his skateboard became an extension of his creative soul. A college football player, Travis displayed exceptional skill and determination on the field. His time as a football player was marked by camaraderie, hard work, and the pursuit of excellence. His teammates remember him not just for his athletic prowess but also for the camaraderie he fostered and the indomitable spirit he brought to every game. Travis's love for skateboarding was infectious, captivating everyone around him with his daring tricks and boundless enthusiasm. He approached each ride with a fearless spirit, embodying the essence of freedom that skateboarding offers. His presence in the skateboarding community was not just about the sport but about the joy and creativity it brought to his life. Beyond his artistic and athletic achievements, Travis was a kind-hearted individual, always ready to extend a helping hand to those in need. His generosity and compassion knew no bounds, creating a ripple effect of positivity in the lives of everyone fortunate enough to cross his path. As we remember Travis, we celebrate the multifaceted man he was--a talented artist, an accomplished skateboarder, a collegiate football player, and, above all, a loving father to his daughter Trinity. Their bond was truly special, a testament to the enduring connection between father and daughter. Travis poured his heart into nurturing Trinity's spirit, sharing laughter, stories, and the simple joys of life. The love they shared created a foundation of warmth and support that will endure through the ages. May Travis rest in peace, surrounded by the echoes of his laughter on skate ramps, the cheers of the football field, and the timeless beauty of his artwork.

In his younger days, Tim had a unique companion, a horse named Chick, which he used for transportation. The stories of his adventures with Chick added to the richness of his life's tapestry. Tim was a dedicated family man who embraced the role of a father, offering unwavering support and guidance to his wife's two daughters. He played a pivotal role in shaping the lives of his cherished granddaughters, leaving an indelible impact on their futures. His love for his grandchildren was matched only by his passion for storytelling, which he generously shared with them. Throughout his life, Tim was a hardworking body repairman, known for his unmatched dedication and work ethic. He took great pride in his ability to restore cars with skill and precision, serving as an inspiration to all who knew him. One of his greatest joys was his love for cars and the thrill of the racetrack. Music, particularly the iconic sounds of Pink Floyd, resonated deeply with his soul. He also had a penchant for literature and immersed himself in the novels of Stephen King. Tim cherished moments of music, often enjoyed under the canopy of the Redwoods at his home along the Russian River, where he resided for over two decades. Tim's legacy lives on in the hearts of those who knew him. He is survived by his children: Christina and Richard, Andrea and Jason, and his beloved grandchildren: Amanda, Justin, Ashley, Damen, Samuel, Gabriel, Brandon, Koa, Elijah, and Mia.

She loved taking her first companion, Pekoe, and later her beloved Faia to schools and events to demonstrate the amazing abilities of hearing dogs. 'Grammy' loved being silly and making fun of herself. Wearing funny accessories, making silly faces, singing songs, bestowing nicknames, and telling stories were her secret weapons to make her grandchildren laugh and smile. Most importantly, her unwavering love for and belief in her three children impacted their lives and will be felt generations to come. Marian is survived by her children, Ron, Bryan, and LoriMorgan; grandchildren Kyle Morgan, Kelly Maynard, and Caroline Anderegg; great grandchildren Mack and Barrett Maynard; daughters-in-law Edy Morgan and Laurie Morgan; son-in-law Carl Scherfner; brother, Scott Neely and his wife Nancy; nephew Mike Detrick and his wife Tara; several loving cousins, and, of course, her beloved Canine Companion, Faiawho still lives with family in Ron and Edy's care.
