Todd Bell

I'm just a bears fan who grew up down the street from his teammate Mike Richardson love ya todd

Todd lived his life, as an NFL All Pro Safety, Saint of the most high God, and loving son to his parents, a great husband to Daphne, and as a friend to many of us who knew him! He impact and presence are truly missed! The wonderful thing about his death is he is resting in God! This is the greatest Hal of Fame!

DEAR ELDERBELL AND MONTERAY,I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT TODD GOING HOME TO BE WITH THE LORD JUST A FEW DAYS AGO.I WENT TO SCHOOL WITH TODD,AND HE WAS A NICE KIND MAN,BUT I HAVE ALSO WORKED WITH YOU MONTARAY FOR SEVERAL YEARS IN THE NURSERY AT THE HOSPITAL.THAT WAS DURING TODDS PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL DAYS AND I COULDNT BELIEVE WHEN WALTER PAYTON WOULD BE AT YOUR HOUSE!! I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS HERE ON EARTH,BUT WE HAVE THE HEAVENLY PROMISE WE WILL SEE HIM AGAIN ONE DAY WITH OUR LORD! YOU ARE IN...

I was shocked to hear of Todd passing away. To know Todd was to love him. I will always remember his smile. I was once told that God takes the good ones young and leaves the rest of us time to get right with the Lord. My condolence to the family especially to his parents. May you find peace in knowing that Todd's life was an example for all to follow. He was a true man of God. His memory will forever live in my heart.

Life has many turns. I graduated from Middletown High School in 1977 with Todd. I watched him play football as I was in the band. We were in gymn together, and I respected him. The last time I saw him was at our 25 year reunion. May God bless him and his family forever.

I enjoyed the honor and privilege of playing high school football with Todd. I send my sincere condolances to the Bell family.

I still remember that day (and Todd) like it was yesterday. Blocking that punt at Michigan and looking up to see #25 running it into the end zone brought tears to my eyes, and thanks to Todd, was the highlight of my athletic career. Todd and I are forever linked by that play.
Now I get a tear in my eye to hear that Todd has passed before his time. Although I didn't really know him well, what a fantastic athlete he was and an even finer guy!!

Having lost my own son, I...

My deepest sympathies goes out to Mr. and Mrs. Archellus Bell and the family. I remember back in the 80s when Todd first came to Chicago (Bears Football Team)we met and he called me "Church Lady", the Spirit bare witness. I admired him from the start. His work was not in vain. We will met again, Todd. Love always, Your Sister in the Lord and dear friend, Cynthia A. (Barker)Wells

My deepest sympathies and prayers go out to Todd's family. Todd and I shared many conversations about life and sports, but one thing he always expressed was faith. For this I thank him. Rest in peace my brother and long time friend.
Sincerely,
