Travis and Alyssa Gumm Obituary – Beloved Parents Tragically Pass, Leaving Community United in Support of Their Three Children
Travis Daniel Gumm was born on January 26, 1979, and passed away on September 27, 2017 . His wife, Alyssa Gumm, passed away in late 2016 following a critical illness . Together, they were loving parents to three children—Jaxon (14), Ashlee (12), and Dylan (10)—whose lives they enriched with boundless love and care.
❤️ Family & Community Response
Long-time friends and loved ones rallied around the Gumm children after Alyssa’s passing, and again when Travis died. A GoFundMe campaign—“Save Alyssa & Travis’s 3 Kids”—highlights the community’s dedication:
“Most of you know that Alyssa died last year. What you may not know is that her husband, Travis, passed away this month.”
Hundreds of donations—totaling over $20,000—reflect the collective heart of family, friends, and generous strangers doing whatever they could—finishing a basement, covering supplies, and offering counseling and emotional support
