But God is a comforter, healer and sustainer of life.Travis will live on forever though the beautiful memories and the impact his life had on others. Just know that leaning on God and the love of friends will help see you through tough times like these. My deepest and heartfelt sympathy to you and the Rhodes family. Agape' B.Parker

I can't find the words to express how shocking and heartbreaking Tavis' passing has been. My heart goes out to his family and friends and especially to his loving and devoted Mother-who raised a respectful and hardworking young man. May God keep and soothe Tavis' loved ones during this trying time and God rest his soul.

My prayers are Tanwa and the Rhodes family. I remember Tavis when he was at R.N. Harris as a respectful young man. I pray that God wrap his arms around Tavis's mom and provide her with the strength and comfort needed to get through this difficult time. Rest In Peace!! Sherria Grubbs and Family

My sincere condolences to the family. A wonderful, kind and well mannered young man will be missed by many. Each time I saw him at Hillside, he would greet me with "hey Ms. Parker and a hug. Ms. Rhodes, job well done! You raised an awesome young man. Keeping you all in prayer. Sandra Parker

Our heart and prayers are with you all. ~ Ms Q and Family❤️🙏🏾

I am so blessed to have memories of this amazing young man. I became close with he and his family through my sister who worked with his mom and became close friends. From when he was young until now he always had that kind smile. My favorite memory was just recently when my sister and I came home and noticed we had new neighbors moving in. I started to speak to the nice young man and then immediately there was recognition, "Ms. Jones (he said)!!" "TAVIS (my sister said)!!!" He smiled so big and gave us both hugs. Just about every day when I got home from work or was about to head out somewhere we would see each other and he would always smile and say, "Hey, Ms. Jones," and ask how I was doing. These are memories I will keep with me always. Many prayers and blessings to the whole family and all who knew and loved this amazing young man.

Still lost for words.... Tavis was always such a beautiful Spirit. You were ALWAYS like Sunshine with a wide smile that touched everyone he cane in contact with My heartfelt sympathies go out to your family. You were always so kind, well mannered, and respectful. You represented your family, community, and country well. You will be profoundly missed. -Ms Sandra

To the family of Tavis, we send our sincere sympathy for your loss. At this time there may be questions and disbelief and yet we know that God has a plan and he will not allow you to be alone. An angel has been taken from you, leaving you with great memories of his smile, personality, and family and friends in the Durham community and beyond. He will always live inside of you and those that knew and loved him. Sending love now and in the many days to come. William, Connie and Shelbi Britt

My deepest sympathy to the Rhodes family. My heart is with you at this time - Starr P.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to your family. I Aremember you as a respectful and beautiful student at RN Harris. I am so sorry that you didn't get to fulfill your great potential. RIP.

What a gift you were Tavis. I was blessed to see you grow so much in elementary school. I remember when I had Stan, the class hamster, and you would come at the end of every day just to sit and visit with him. It was so great to see you grow up and continue to do so well. I loved catching up with you in the line at Chick-fil-A... from childhood, till the last time I saw you, you kept that same bright smile, always respectful and kind... so heartbroken. I pray continually for your family. Love you Tavis! The green candle is in your honor from your RN Harris family. We'll never forget you!!!

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
