James Todd Obituary
"Jamie"
July 9, 1977- February 7, 2013
Jamie passed away in his home this week, surrounded by his loving family. A young 35 years of age; death be not proud, for Jamie lived a beautiful life. Indeed, it was Jamie's world, and we were the fortunate for having been able to share in it.
Jamie graduated from Wilmington University and continued to enjoy doing what he did best, helping others find their way. Many can attest that Jamie, with his engaging personality and infectious smile, never met a stranger.
Jamie is survived by his mother, Catherine E. Capodanno; his father, James M. Todd, Sr.; his daughter, Kelsie Seldomridge; his sister, Lauren E. Todd, and beloved dog, Romeo; his grandmother, Elizabeth L. Lipstein, Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Shea, along with other aunts, uncles and cousins as well, will all miss him dearly
The family will be hosting an intimate family memorial service, but will not be hosting a public service. To all of his friends and other loved ones; the family would certainly appreciate your bending a personal knee in celebration of your time with Jamie.
In lieu of flowers, donations are certainly appreciated and received at your local Salvation Army, as consistent with Jamie's intentions and style.
Jamie and happy memories of him will remain in all of our hearts and minds. We all thank God for Jamie and his life and we can all find peace knowing that he now rests in the arms of God.
