Travis Higa Obituary

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. A special memorie of Travis when he first came into the shipyard as a young apprentice. He ended in my gang for a while he already was well known for skill for working on cars & adapting well in the shipyard. But unfortunately there was this one time he got in trouble. The shipyard Commander was doing an inspection in our gang area & approached Travis & asked him is that a cell phone in your pocket. Back then & even now it's prohibited in the shipyard. I remember getting the call from the shipyard commander office about the incident. The first thing came to my mind was Oh No!. Because the shipyard commander very strict about bringing personal cell in the shipyard especially those with camara. When I talk to Travis he was kinda shocked up about it, he said he forgot it was in may pocket Im I in trouble he said. if it was any body else I may not believe them but Travis I believed him. So I told him I would talk to the Shipyard Commander. It was a good thing the Shipyard Commander was my friend. I told him Mr. Travis is one of my best apprentice & I don't want to loss him & he said because I like you Mr. Ford I'll just give him a warning. But make sure he doesn't it again. When I talked to Travis he was very pleased & humble. Rest in Peace my young apprentice I will miss you.
