Obituary of Travis Thomas Murray

Travis Thomas Murray, 38, of Morgantown, entered into eternal glory on Saturday, December 10. He fought a long, courageous battle with metastatic cancer, but is now free of pain and suffering and in the presence of His Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Travis was born on July 23, 1984 in Morgantown, WV, the son of David Thomas Murray and Ruth Ann (Cook) Murray. In addition to his parents, Travis is survived by the love his life, his wife, Sasha (Hvizda) Murray; his brother, Steven Davis of Martinsburg; his brother, Tim Davis of Bruceton Mills; his sister, Mandi Murray of Morgantown; his sister, Candi (Ed Pillar) of Morgantown. Travis leaves behind several nieces and nephews. Travis was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Glen William Sr and Evelyn Lorraine (Zinn) Cook of Star City, and his paternal grandparents, Elmer and Ella (Hubbard) Murray of Morgantown, along with several aunts, uncles and cousins. Travis was always known to be a strong man physically and mentally, and for having a very kind and giving heart. Travis never met a stranger, and he had much knowledge, smiles, laughs and stories to share. He was highly respected and loved by everyone he met, and he was extremely talented; truly a jack-of-all-trades. Travis was an avid Hot Wheels collector, truck and car enthusiast, amazing car painter and restorer, gifted welder, hunter and fisherman. Travis was without a doubt one of a kind in every way, and the world will not be the same without him. He will be dearly missed by many.
