Lloyd Ivan Travis

The passing of Lloyd Ivan Travis occurred peacefully at his home in Canal NB on April 5, 2023. Born at Miramichi NB on August 19, 1959, he was a son of the late Benson and Juanita (Matchett) Travis.

A loving father, brother, uncle, and grandfather, in addition to his son Spencer McLean and two granddaughters Scarlet and Braelynn of Utopia, he is survived by his beloved siblings: Brenda Martin of St. George NB, Benny Travis (Carol Voutt) of Blacks Harbour NB, Rosalie (Burton) Borthwick of Canal NB, Gladys Holt of St. George NB, Vincent Travis (Isabelle Dion) of Bonny River NB, Dennis Travis of Utopia NB, Barbara Travis (Darren French) of St. George NB, Spinge Travis (Doug Vantassel) of Pennfield NB and Murray Dyer of Mascarene NB, his step-mother: Carol Travis of Canal NB; step-brother: Chris Lord of Rollingdam NB; several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins as well as his long time family at Fundy Contractors. In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by a brother Perry in infancy and brother-in-law Thomas Wilkins.

Prior to his illness, Lloyd worked as a heavy equipment operator for Fundy Contractors, where he had been employed for most of his life. Working and helping others was his hobby as Lloyd was known as a very selfless person always putting the needs of everyone else before himself.

His pride and joy was his son Spencer. He was an avid outdoorsman who loved camping and fishing with his son. He will be sadly missed by his family and all who knew him.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks and appreciation to his doctors, New Brunswick Extra Mural, St. George as well as his friends Cindy Babineau and Tommy Johnston for their kind and compassionate care given to Lloyd throughout his illness.

Arrangements are in the care of the St. George Funeral Home & Crematorium (755-3533). In keeping with Lloyd's wishes there will be no visitation at the funeral home. A graveside service will be held at the Presbyterian Kirk Cemetery in Pennfield NB on Saturday, May 6^th, 2023 at 11:00 am with Rev. Ann Boudreau officiating, followed by a reception at the St. George Presbyterian Kirk Hall. In Lloyd’s memory, donations to Charlotte County Cancer or to a charity of the donor’s choice would be appreciated by the family.
