Tami Avolia, Milan’s grandmother and Travis’ mother, was devastated by her son’s unexpected and tragic death.

“He didn’t just take my son away. He took my best friend. He took his daughter’s father. She never met him,” said Tami Avolia. “We had a gender reveal party the week before. He was so excited to have a little girl.»
But despite the fact that he wasn’t physically there, Milana’s family made sure she knew her father. That’s why they celebrate his birthday every year. Milan wanted to do something special this year. She wanted to send him balloons to heaven.

And she also added a special note.

“She wrote him a note and I translated it and it says, ‘Happy birthday daddy. I love you. I miss you. And I never wanted you to leave. Happy Birthday. Baby,” shared Tami.
