Travis Seay, a 38-year-old man from Huntington, West Virginia, was a loving husband and a devoted father of four children. He was known for his kindness, generosity, and sense of humor. He worked as a manager at a local grocery store and enjoyed spending time with his family and friends.
On January 18, 2024, Travis was driving home from work when he was involved in a fatal car accident. According to the police report, a drunk driver ran a red light and crashed into Travis’s car, causing it to flip over and catch fire. Travis was trapped inside the burning vehicle and could not escape. He died at the scene from severe injuries and burns.
The drunk driver, identified as 24-year-old Kevin Jones, was arrested and charged with vehicular homicide, driving under the influence, and reckless driving. He is currently being held at the Cabell County Jail on a $1 million bond. He faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted.
Travis Seay’s death has left a huge void in the lives of his family, friends, and community. His wife, Leslie Seay, and his four children, aged 10, 8, 6, and 4, are struggling to cope with the loss of their beloved husband and father. They have set up a GoFundMe page to raise funds for funeral expenses and living costs. As of January 21, 2024, they have received over $50,000 in donations from more than 1,000 people.
Travis’s funeral will be held on January 23, 2024, at the First Baptist Church of Huntington. His family and friends will gather to pay their respects and honor his memory. They will remember him as a man who loved his family more than anything, who always had a smile on his face, and who made the world a better place.
Travis’s death is a tragic reminder of the dangers of drunk driving and the need for stricter laws and enforcement. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, drunk driving kills more than 10,000 people every year in the United States. That is one person every 50 minutes. Drunk driving is not only a crime, but also a selfish and irresponsible act that can destroy lives and families.
We urge our readers to never drink and drive, and to always use a designated driver, a taxi, or a ride-sharing service if they plan to consume alcohol. We also encourage our readers to support the efforts of organizations such as Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) that aim to prevent drunk driving and help the victims and their families.
We extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Travis Seay, and we hope that they find peace and comfort in this difficult time. Travis was a good man who did not deserve to die so young and so tragically. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Rest in peace, Travis.
