Spirals


My friend Travis Rabren passed away yesterday from liver failure as a result of a 2 1/2 year battle with bile duct cancer. Travis knew the odds were against him, but he stayed upbeat during his fight. His caringbridge page shared his journey with us. He put his burden aside and gave it up to God. His attitude was a great example of faith.


Travis was our high school QB. He had a nice touch on the ball. I wonder what his spirals look like in Heaven?

Hey, Dave - you'll be glad to know the celebration of Travis's life yesterday was an AWESOME experience. Matt articulated a very loving, inspirational & moving tribute to his brother, and the family "received" hundreds of friends with hugs & kisses...and, yes, even some laughs. It was nice to see all the guys - Doug, Frank, Trip, Sal, Tim, Scott & Creasy - & share such a special occasion with them.
