Mr. Todd, David & Susan,

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Todd. She was always so nice to me when David and I ran around together back in the day. Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

I am sorry to hear about Mrs. Todd's passing. She was very kind, the first time I met her was a dozen years ago at a garage sale. She surprised me by coming back a week later with an original work of art she had painted just for me. I have always treasured it, it is a painting of mountains with trees and a stream. She was a very giving person and will be missed.

Mrs. Todd was a wonderful lady. Staff and students at Raytown South have been very distraught by the news of her passing. She was very dedicated to her substitute teaching and I enjoyed visiting with her when she was in the building. Mary Magnusson Asst Principal
