It has been 10 years, since Todd has left us and a lot has happened. I didn't get a chance to come to his memorial. I wish I did, I would have liked to seen, Max, Ralph, his parents and friends. My heart goes out to the Williams family. I met Todd when I was about 8 yrs. old in school, and after school, he was my neighbor. We became quick friends and enjoyed the Alum Rock experience. I moved away when I was 11 and sorely missed all my friends. Todd worked @ Olander's, and played his band behind the office. I was so delighted over the past 10 years to become reacquainted with Todd and his band. They even let me sit in a couple of times, to play with them on keyboards.
I wanted to open this chapter to remind all of us, we may loose someone close but we never loose the relationship we had with them. Todd was kind to me and I can only point out my appreciation, and love for him. Let's keep his memory alive by writing our good stories of how he touched us. My sympathy goes out ,to Sarah who I never met, but I have a daughter too, and would want her to know how much he meant to me.
Thank you for everything Todd and being strong when things didn't seem fair. Peace, Love, Laughter, Daryl

Domini - I am shocked and so sorry.. Anu and I very sorry to hear this. I really wish we had stayed more in touch. Todd was my first real and true friend when I moved across the world to Colorado. He made up for all my homesickness and even introduced me to driving long distance. How I wish this were not true. May GOD help you with this tragic loss. Just too shocked for words - Lots of Love Sekhar & Anu KONDEPUDI - now in Bangalore India.

Dear Domini, Lisa, and Max,
Words cannot explain the deep sadness I feel at Todd's passing. He was solid in his beliefs, solid in his convictions, and solid in his love for you all. Todd was a good man, and I am privileged and honored to say he was my brother-in-law. He was also a wonderful brother to your Uncle Mark, and a super uncle to Christina, Michelle, and Stephanie. We all miss him. All my love to you...

It is impossible to say how sad we are and how Todd will be missed, but he was such a great guy to work with, as we put hundreds of projects together over the years. He thought not only like an engineer but as a contractor too. Todd had his artistic side as a musician and a sence of humor that could break the ice in a tense situation. But mostly I remember Todd as a gentleman who loved his family and was warm at heart. Sorry Todd to see you go so early in life, but thanks for makeing this world a better place. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Domini, Max and Lisa. God Bless you all...

My first friend, 48 years ago we met, through moves across the country and beyond, we always remained friends. I guess we formed a bond when we were young. Todd, I'll see you again when I get to heaven. Your Friend Forever, John
P.S. Thanks for teaching me to hit back.
