At OHA your family taught me the meaning of simplicity and that love has no boundaries. Although we have been out of touch for so long, I have warm memories of all of you especially Enoch and his never ending love of adventure. Our prayers are with you.
Dear Travers family, Our prayers are with you at this difficult time. We fondly remember Enoch from when he was a student at Ouachita Hills Academy where we were staff. He was a special young man.

Enoch was a fine and kind young man. Anyone he met could see the goodness in his eyes.
Enoch was my boys, jason and bret, best friend. Enoch hung out and stayed at my place. Enoch was always full of energy and adventure. Enoch could climb a tree like a squirel. He will be missed greatly. Enoch will always be in my thoughts, and never forgoten.
Enoch was the most free spirted individual I had ever met. He made everyone around him laugh and feel warm inside. He was more like a second big brother to me in so many aspcts. My heart goes out to all his family and friends throughout the U.S. I will always remember all the times we had together. Sincerely Bret
Enoch was the most outgoing,adventurous,laid back,and couragous person I have ever met. He wanted to see the world. He stood up for me. He was the best tree climber I have ever met. I told him I was going to give up on a skateboard trick and he told me to keep at it and I would get it down. I took his advice and now I have mastered the trick. Thank you for being a special person in my life, I will remember and cherish Enoch now and always.
Enoch will always be in our hearts. We will miss our sweet neighbor and friend. He always had a warm smile,a Hello and a kind word. Our thoughts and prayers go to each and everyone of you. Enoch has become the angel in heaven to watch over his family and all of his loved ones, forever.

I attended Ouachita Hills Academy when the Travers family worked at the school, and I remember all the fun times I had with all the Travers kids, and how kind they all were. My prayers are with your entire family, God bless.
I did not know Enoch personally, but from what Ive heard and read, he seemed to be an outstanding young man. My condolences go out to the entire Travers and extended family of Enoch. Deepest Sympathy- Nicole
I have the fondist memories of Enoch as friend and I will for ever hold them close to me. Sorry for your lost. He will all ways be remebered.
I knew Enoch for 5 yrs. before he passed and not a day went by that I didn\\\’t benefit from his amazing prescence. He was one of my best friends and I miss him terribly. WIth his passing there dwells an emptiness in our lives we don\\\’t know how to fill. There is no other that compares to the beauty and compassion that Enoch embodied and there were not limits to his strength and adventerous demeanor. But the quality of life he left must never be forgotten for it overpoured in our lives in places we never knew existed. Dear brother Enoch the only solice I hold as does that of your dear sweet and wonderful family is the comfort in knowing we will see your beautiful face again. All my thoughts and prayers are with the Travers\\\’family this coming week. Enoch was trully an inspiration. God bless, Kimberly
I met Enoch through a neighbor while he was cutting trees and could tell that he was a special person. I had him cut my trees as well and he did an excellent job. I sent him to my brother-in-law’s house on the other end of town and Enoch amazed everyone how he was able to climb the trees. I am very sorry for your loss. He will certainly be missed.
I will always carry Enoch in my heart. He was a part of my life as well as my mother’s and sister’s. He taught me the song ‘As the Deer’, a song that will never be forgotten. My thoughts and prayers for the Travers’ family.
I will always hold Enoch in fond memory. He and I shared many happy adventures together at my families farm, on fishing adventures, riding my ATV’s, etc. He was very much like the younger brother I never had. His loss hurts us all but we have the hope of seeing him again in heaven. I hope and pray that we are all faithful and will see Enoch again very soon.

The thing we cover up is self By Enoch Travers Living in a world of endless error, we strive to do nothing for our selves that will stop sin and deception from winning the lives of all our fellow men.We go on building great buildings of selfgradification.To make our error covered up by the simple pleasures of this earth,Which is the great example of sin for the billions of planets in the realm of God’s kingdom.Enoch wrote this While he was with me(Teresa Tetzlaff) I just thought that I should share it with you Mr.Travers Love Always Teresa
We are the mother & stepfather of Jason Thome. When we first met Enoch, it was as if we already knew him. He has touched the lives of all our children in so many ways. From his expertise in wood carvings, to his love of adventure and rock climbing,and even making a night at work fun when he was there. The emptiness felt here cannot compare to the loss you all must feel. Please accept our most heartfelt condolences and know that this most special young man will never be forgotten.
