Marilyn, Our family was so saddened to hear of Todd's death. I was so glad we knew him these past 14 years. His presence at Jeanette's house during July 4th was always memorable as Todd had a way with a story and a guitar. He will be missed.

Todd was my half-brother-in-law, and although I didn't know him well, I truly enjoyed the times that we got together with him. He was a special individual, and I will miss him. May he rest in peace.
Alice Webb
Todd was my brother. While we did not grow up together, I was fortunate to have known him in his adult years. Todd was a talented writer and fun-loving person. He will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. May God bless and welcome him home.
