I never met Traynor, but wish that I had. I understand, from family members, that he was an especially courageous young man. His many medical challenges were met with bravery and determination. His fun personality and sharp wit will surely be missed every day. I know that his passing will leave a huge hole in 1ives of his mother, his family and his friends. I will be thinking of all of you and, praying that your fond memories of Traynor will bring you some measure of comfort in the days ahead. Bless his sweet heart, as well all of those who loved and cared for him.

Traynor’s family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry about Traynor’s passing. I felt as thouhh I knew him, as I am a friend of Laveta Browning’s in Frankfort, KY. I know Traynor had been through so much in the last several years of this life. Now he is at peace.
