Helping a father, Doug Tharp, bury his only son

On the evening of Friday, October 23, 2026, Travis Tharp was tragically taken from his family in a roadside accident on I-35 near Marietta in Love County, Oklahoma. Travis was one of two men who lost their lives that night while working on a stranded semi alongside the highway for the company. Travis was the only son of our cousin, Doug Tharp, one of the kindest men you could know. Doug is now facing the heartbreaking responsibility of laying his only son to rest, and the unexpected costs of burial arrangements are more than he can manage alone during this time of profound grief. We are asking for your kindness and support to help Doug bury his son so he can give Travis a dignified farewell and focus on healing in the days ahead. Any gift, no matter the size, would mean so much to a father who has lost his only child and best friend. Thank you for helping us honor Travis's memory. Please send your prayers for Doug through this heartbreaking season. Our deepest love and prayers also go to the Gravelle family in the loss of John during this time. John and his family meant so much to Travis and we have much gratitude for them and for their Christian friendship with Travis. The impact of that Christian influence is tremendous.
