Waller Travis

Travis Lloyd Waller, 74, of Pueblo West, Colorado, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Saturday, December 13, 2003, in Waco, Texas.

He was born on May 1, 1929, in Troup, Texas, and was preceded in death by his parents, William Dennis and Rosa Mae, and brothers, William Troy and Howard Dewaine.

Travis served in the US Air Force from 1949-1953, when he married his lifelong sweetheart, Katherine Pitzer, on August 13 in Roswell, New Mexico. Travis lived in Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado. Most recently Travis was a resident of Pueblo West, where he founded the Bank of Southern Colorado.

He was a member of various organizations, including Gideons International and Rocky Mountain Family Church, and he served on the boards of San Isabel Electric Cooperative and Andrew Wommack Ministries.

Travis was protector, provider, and lovingly devoted soul mate to his wife, and he leaves behind a Christian legacy and inspiring example for his children and grandchildren. As both a husband and daddy, Travis was loving and kind and will be greatly missed.

Travis is survived by his wife, Katherine Adelle Waller of Pueblo West; sons, Preston Lynn and wife, LuAnn, of Lorena, Texas; Ronald Craig and wife, Zoey, of Falcon, Colorado; and daughter Jenifer Reneé Waller of Denver, Colorado; five grandchildren, Michael, Bobby, Spencer, Jordan, and Joseph; sister Shirley Ruth Coleman; and nieces, nephews, and beloved relatives and friends.

'We love you with all our hearts for all our lives.'

Imagine--
Stepping on shore, and finding it Heaven!
Taking hold of a hand, and finding it God's hand.
Breathing a new air, and finding it celestial air.
Feeling invigorated, and finding it immortality.
Passing from storm to tempest to an unknown calm.
Waking up, and finding it Home.
-- based on 'Poems That Live Forever' by Hazel Felleman

Imagine Travis' thrill in seeing Jesus.
Imagine Travis' relief at receiving a body that is perfect. Imagine Travis' joy on hearing,
'Well done, good and faithful servant.'

We grieve for our loss. Travis Waller has not lost his life - he has found it.

'Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.'
- 2 Corinthians 5:1
