Our Heart Speaks remembers and pays tribute to a man who has lived a life of meaning and purpose while giving so much to others.
Travis Roy a promising 20-year-old hockey star, moments into his first collegiate game suffered a spinal cord injury which rendered him paralyzed from the neck down.
Subsequent to his injury, he devoted his life to raising awareness for spinal cord injuries and inspiring others as a motivational speaker.
Travis was awarded an honorary doctorate from Boston University, celebrating his life’s work and recognizing his incredible contributions to the world.
He will be sorely missed.
