Obituary of David Harold Travis

Age 62 of Brookside. It is with heavy hearts that we announced the passing of our step father Dave, surrounded by his family and his close friend Marcus Costandi.  Dave went to Heaven to be with the love of his life Maxine on December 26, 2019.  Dave had a 20-year career in the cleaning industry working with chemicals.  Dave was very passionate about the environment and focused on sustainable cleaning with the industry.  Dave held positions from sales management to vice president of Operations from various companies.  Dave and Maxine owned and operated Ricks Fine Foods in Moncton for many years. Their latest endeavor was 1^st choice Vapor in Spryfeild, were they made many new friends.  Dave truly enjoyed camping and made Halloween weekend at the camp ground the biggest event of the season with all his ghoulie decorations.  Every chance Dave and Maxine had they were on a plane heading south, they loved revisiting spots where they had made many good friends.
