March 11, 2009
Mr. and Mrs. White and Family: Todd was indeed a wonderful person. I remember he was in alot of pain and he would walk down the street slowly and say Hi Mom. Sitting here remember Standing by Todd bed on Friday holding hand and talking with Todd and his mother at the hospital. We had great conservations and I never would had thought Todd would be gone the next day. I really missed Todd and I know he is not suffering anymore and he in a better place. I was thinking Todd brother would take time out and take Todd places in the truck and they worked great together in the yard for neighbors and they both will be smiling and how he get in the car with his parents and smiling. Todd rang my door bell often and always say mom how you and grandfather( talking about my dad) then he would go to say what he needed. I do not know what to say to you all but I am praying for all of you. Love You !!

To my Extended Family,
As we encounter Todd's soul going from labor to reward, I cannot help to continue to reminisce all of the experiences that we shared. As you know, from infancy to adulthood, Todd and I had to opportunity to learn a lot from each other. I am truly saddened to lose my friend.
Unfortunately, I am unable to come down due to conflicting prior commitments. Be assured that I will visit at my earliest opportunity.

To God be the glory!!! Hello my family as I sit here and think on my life and growing up in Roanoke, I have nothing but fond memories of love and laughter. Aunt Barbara and Uncle Boo Boo, I know your heart is aching and the tears will fall,but know that with every teardrop God is there to catch it when it falls. I will miss my cousin,but I know that the God we all serve is holding him forever more. We will see him again one day. Keep your head up and hold it high in Jesus name, we are a strong family even in the time of sadness and adversity, Willie White(our matriarch and grandmother) is proud, I'm sure of the love and strength that continues to hold us all why because as a mother and protector she sent up prayers long ago to hold us for now. I love you and may God continue to hold us all in his loving embrace. Love your neice, Michelle

To My Family,
Wishing God's comfort for you Uncle BooBoo, Aunt Barbara & Children. It's difficult at such a time to know what words of comfort to say, but know that God is with you all and will sustain you day by day. I will remember Todd as I last saw him, and that was with a BIG bright smile on his face, and telling me that he was ok. I love you all.

"DON'T"
Don't spend to much time in mourning
Tears are for the sad
I am with Jesus now
This should make you glad
Don't waste your hours in grieving
No need to feel distressed
I was tired of life's frustrations
And had to get some rest
Don't vex yourself with questions
Or try to reason why
Life here for me has ended
It came my time to die
Don't lose the love I gave you
Feed it with upmost care
Grow it with enduring devotion
And spread it everywhere
Don't fret because my leaving
Came in such a way
We'll have another meeting
On God's eternal day
I love you Todd
Our family has suffered a great loss.
I find great peace in knowing that you're no longer suffering
And have finally reached the goal
of heaven that we in our earthly bodies still seek to achieve
We will miss your smile, bear hugs,
and hearing you cry out "Cous"
Your advice on my garden
And you coming in the door
with your chittling brush
Our hearts forever

May we send you our deepest sympathy at this time and say that our thoughts have been with you since we heard of the death of your son. No person or experience will ever replace the happy days and love Todd gave you. We hope it will be of some comfort to know that you gave him all the love and care possible and that your many friends and family members share your sorrow. No one who knew Todd will ever forget the friendliness and kindness he extended to us all. He was loved by all who knew him.
Sincerely,

A Poem Dedicated to my Family
Felicia White
Todds Song
I'll look down and smile
while the angels sing a heavenly song
I'll here "Going up to Yonder" from the church chour and I'll sing along.
I am not alone, all who went before me are here including Grandma, Uncle Robert, Uncle Cecil saying "come on in my people as he sheds a tear"
I am here my spirit moves in the memories you hold dear
Remember Family how much I love you, and know I took your love with me.
I do not wish for you to cry or feel sad
My pain is gone and I am free
I have my heavenly family here
May you peace and the Lord will Comfort you as he has me.
I remeber the days of Todd and I running around Uncle Boo Boo and Auntie Barbara's house when we were kids, care free and happy, eating popsicles and hiding from our younger siblings...getting on the nerves of the older ones I will remember Todd as one of my closest cousins that always had a smile and a hug for me, no matter where no matter what.....I will always have a special place in my heart just for him.
