Marianne, you may not remember me but I worked for McG-H for many years. On April 10, 2008 I lost my husband to the same awful disease. You have my deepest, deepest sympathy.

Marianne & Mike,
Seems like just the other day you went to Florida and he was trying to figure out what was wrong with him… no doubt it was the shortest yet longest year of your lives. As all the suffering finally ends for Todd, we hope the rest of yours is as brief as possible with the comfort of knowing his spirit, that touched so many lives, will live on. Our dear friend will surely be missed. We will always remember him and his great, vivacious personality with a smile. Knowing Todd, he'd rather it be laughter instead of tears, as he always had a joke to share. We hope you can find laughter again soon.

Everyone knows Todd's bark was far worse than his bite, what a softie.He is already missed by so many whose life he touched. Todd lived his life to the fullest and loved his family and friends with such passions. Mike you were the star of his life and you made him so proud. Do not grieve too long, just look around when you miss him, he is everywhere,the house,the garden the workshop and the air you breathe. Todd changed everyone he came in contact with just being Todd.Just knowing him brings a smile to my thoughts.Bless you all he is always with you.

Dear Marianne and family. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Todd was such a pleasure to know. His fierce independence and spirit were so inspiring and also entertaining. It was my honor to have known and cared for him such a short time.

Marianne, I am not sure if I will be able to make the visitation, but I want you to know that you, Michael & your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers. Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

One of my first memories of meeting Todd was when we were in the Top Job Jamboree, which was standing room only. I was standing next to Todd Jordan and Todd Kinnikin, and my name is Todd too. I thought that three Todd's side-by-side was an interesting coincidence.
I greatly enjoyed our long phone conversations over the years. I was flattered and honored that Todd would share his personal business experiences with me, both good and bad. He was also a good adviser and gave me guidance both as Fabricator editor and as executive director of NOMMA. He was always direct and honest, and he gave me fresh perspectives and great advice.
Since we began keeping records in 2004, I show that Todd won 2 silver and 8 gold awards in NOMMA's Top Job competition -- an impressive feat. He is also one of only three firms to have won the Mitch Heitler Award for Excellence three times.
Todd will be dearly missed. He was a passionate volunteer and a great asset on the NOMMA board. I think Todd's greatest accomplishment was raising the bar for craftsmanship and encouraging and inspiring others to reach for new heights.
