TRAVIS LEE WADE MCDONALD
FOREVER 37
​
November 8, 1979 - January 1, 2017

Over and above having your child pass prior to you, is having to make that decision to turn off a little switch that allows them to go. You never imagine having to make that decision, ever. Like many of us, Travis' mother had to do just that on January 1, 2017 for her son after he had suffered an overdose on December 27th that had left him with significant brain damage.

A charismatic and athletic boy who was friendly and respectful of others made him easily liked by all he encountered.
"It started with one bad trip on acid," says his mother Jackie. "It was the cause of a mental illness that led to more substantial drug use."
​
His life ended with that single dose of fentanyl.
