Travis passed away Monday, September 7, 2020 at Cookeville Regional Medical Center. He was born April 13, 1931 in rural New Albany, Mississippi. Travis was a member of First United Methodist Church of Cookeville. He loved people and surrounded himself with family, church and friends. He will be remembered as quick witted and sharp as a tack, with the ability to spin any recollection into a grand story. Travis began his professional career at the Federal Reserve Bank in Memphis. He then went to Memphis Bank and Trust during that time earning his degree at the LSU school of banking. He moved to Nashville to begin a new position with Capital City Bank. In 1965 he moved to Livingston, TN to accept the position of President for the newly chartered First National Bank of Livingston, which was founded by Millard Vaughn Oakley and a group of investors. In 1971 Travis along with Henry McCall and Bill Looper started Financial Institution Services, Inc. (FISI). The purpose was to allow banks to offer packaged banking services to their customers. He was preceded in death by his parents, Annie and Harrison Anderson; a brother, Quay; a sister, Ruby, and his oldest son, Harrison. He is survived by his wife Charlovene Looper; daughter, Susan (and husband Art) Napolitano of Franklin, TN; son, Wesley Anderson of Lebanon, TN; and grandsons Corey Napolitano of Franklin, TN and Connor Napolitano, Chandler, AZ.
