Travis Lee Osley

Travis graduated high school from North Carolina School of the Arts in Winston-Salem, NC. After graduation, Travis traveled around the United States with numerous theatre companies for years doing what he loved. Travis was a great actor/performer/dancer. Many times he would reluctantly have his little sister in tow at rehearsals. The theatre is where Travis truly found his peace. Travis would later go on to have a career in hospitality. Travis was a lover of dolphins, Winnie the Pooh, and all things Sock Monkey. He loved his knick knacks. One of his most memorable adventures was fulfilling a dream of swimming with the dolphins years ago.

With an infectious laugh and witty sense of humor, Travis will certainly be missed. The end of life isn't our worst fear, it's the end of memories still left to be had.

"How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard..." (Winnie the Pooh)

He is survived by his father, Phil Osley (Ann); his sister, Jennifer Osley (Danny White); his nephew, Brandon Osley; his nieces, Candace Osley and Raquel White; a friend who held a special place in Travis' heart, Todd Galligos; his feline child, Roxy; his two canine babies, Roscoe and Newman; and many other loving extended family members.
