Travis received his formal education through Prince Georges County Public Schools. Travis was a hard worker with a good work ethic. He worked various jobs in hospitality, security, and construction. His friends called him “Tre”, but to family he was Travis, Lil Travis and Uncle Lil Travis or even “BadMan Pete” to some. Travis was a Washingtonian and DC Native at heart. He was the true definition of DC or nothing. He was a die-hard Redskin fan, he loved going to see his Skins play at FedEx Field, but he hated to see them loose. Travis looked forward to playing basketball on Sundays at Anacostia Park. I’ve heard “the game won’t be the same without him”. He loved the game of spades and would run Boston’s for hours & talk smack while doing it. Travis enjoyed traveling, taking road trips & having fun. If you knew Tre, you would know he was obsessed with Go-Go music. You could always find him at a Go-Go doing the latest dances. Even though we will all miss Travis, Life didn’t owe him nothing, he lived well and to the fullest. Tre lived life without regrets. He was a lover and a fighter. Travis was a dedicated and devoted father to his children, only wanting the best for them. He loved up on his children and family every chance he got. Travis didn’t hold grudges, nor did he understand division amongst family, he got along with everyone . Travis was always there when you needed him. Travis word was his bond. If asked to do something, his favorite words were ”I got you, that’s a bet”. Travis Devonn Collins will be deeply missed.
