Dennis began his earthly walk on September 14, 1949 and embarked on his walk with Jesus on October 5, 2024 at 75 years of age. Dennis proudly served our country in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War era and was a history enthusiast. He milked cows for many years and won awards as an outstanding dairyman and for milk production. After 20 years of dairy farming, he sold the cows and went to work at Southeastern Louisiana University where he retired. Dennis enjoyed baseball cards, coins, country music, and was endeared to the Alamo and its legacy. If you saw Dennis, he usually had his loyal dog, Crockett, with him everywhere he went. Dennis served as a board member at Oak Forest Academy and was a Yellow Jacket super fan. He did not miss a home football game and was committed to running the chains until he was no longer able. Dennis faithfully served Jesus at Montpelier Baptist Church where he served as a deacon until the time of his death. Dennis is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Linda Wilson Travis; three children, Randy Travis (Carlye) of The Woodlands, TX, DeLynn Travis Spinks (Kelly) of Montpelier, LA, and Dr. Brett Travis (Brandy) of Kenner, LA;  10 grandchildren, Caleb Travis, Bridges Travis, Cort Travis, Bobby Spinks (Brittany), Danny Spinks, Justin Jenkins, Kailee Spinks Neal (Jonathan), Jack Allen, Barron VonAntz, and Gabriel Travis; and one brother, Brian Travis (Molly). Dennis is preceded in death by his parents, Ray Devon Travis and Cassie Inez Bridges Travis Tate; stepfather, Edward Randall Tate; and one brother, Cary Devon Travis. A celebration of life will take place at Montpelier Baptist Church on Saturday, October 12, 2024 with visiting at 12:00 Noon until memorial services at 2:00PM. Friends and family are invited to join us and to wear blue in remembrance of his piercing blue eyes. In lieu of flowers, please make memorial donations to Montpelier Baptist Church Building Fund.
