Todhunter Bensen

I met Tod in acute physical rehab in Los Gatos just last year. As a 25 year old I was struggling to keep my spirits up and talking with him about startups each day was a highlight and helped me heal much faster. I didn't know him long but he was a great person and I will miss him. My heart goes out to him family and friends and his legacy will live on.

I was so sorry to learn of Tod's passing last night, as I read the Dartmouth Alumni Magazine. I was a friend of Tod's and knew him from early in my life; his mother and mine were close friends for many years. We grew up in the same town, went to the same high school and attended Dartmouth together. I will always remember him as enthusiastic, energetic and full of ideas, with a yearning for adventure. It is hard to believe that he is gone.

I was very much saddened upon reading about Tod's passing. I was a friend of his at Dartmouth, and remember him well. Tod had a real kindness to him, and was a wonderful friend. I recall Tod's infectious laugh, and that he enjoyed life most in the company of those he loved best. My condolences to his family.

So sorry about Tod! I haven't seen him since I was in the single digits,but,he is one of the nicest smiles I have ever known and I would continue to see that in Christmas greetings I received from the Family. I noticed in a Christmas greeting I got 2 years ago that Johnny looks a lot like his Uncle Tod now. Thinking about you all during this difficult time.

Blessings to you, Fiona & family. Words fail me. I regret I didn't get more "Benz Time" in my life, but I'm so grateful for what I got. JT

Oh no! We are so sorry to hear about Tod...I only just bumped into him at the Pioneer a few months ago.. Jim and I enjoyed playing on the softball team he led some years ago, talking to him about WildAid, and talking to him about Dartmouth. He was very encouraging, and kind, despite the fact that softball is the one sport I really can't play...and Jim was frequently traveling. Both Jim and I really liked Tod, and we will remember him fondly.

Dear Fiona and family,
I am so sorry and sad for your loss of Tod way to soon in life. Though I haven't seen you for a long time, I have fond memories of Tod and you when Rye and I joined you with Rich and Gina for various events. He was a jolly, smart, funny and thoughtful person and everyone who knew him will miss him tremendously. With love and condolences-Shirley Kelley

Truly saddened to hear the news of Tod's passing, my heartfelt prayers and thoughts are with Fiona and her family. May the happiness that they shared as a couple continue to strengthen Fiona is the days to come.

With love and prayers

A lovely guy, modest and genuine and a pleasure to have known. My heartfelt condolences to Fiona and all Tod's family. RIP.
