Todd Tarantino

February 16, 2010 is a day I will never forget. I am having such a hard time realizing that wednesday will be 1 year since you were gone. I plan on spending wednesday with your mom and family and I will try my very best to spend the day doing what you would do...remembering all the happy times. I know you are with all of us always and heaven is so lucky to have you. Rest in peace my dear friend. My love always and forever. Sharonia

My Toddster,

There are days where it just hits me....you're gone, really? Thinking about you a lot these past couple of days, these were the days that weren't so busy at work for us and we could just talk and enjoy our friendship without the dramas of life. Saturday will be your 40th birthday and I want you to know I am thinking of you and will never forget you.

Love you always Sharonia

"You got it from your father
It was all he had to give
So it's yours to use and cherish
For as long as you may live

If you lost the watch he gave you
It can always be replaced;
But a black mark on your name
Can never be erased

It was clean the day you took it
And a worthy name to bear
When he got it from his father
There was no dishonor there

So make sure you guard it wisely
After all is said and done

When I heard of Todd's sudden passing I was immediately transported back to the time I had the pleasure of working with Todd at Washington School. This was before he went up to the board. I recall his kind, loving and caring ways as well as his attention and diligence to any task at hand. He was an exceptional human being and his natural ability to work with students, parents, and colleagues was clearly evident from the onset.

Todd had a special way about him. I truly believe he...

Our hearts are truly broken at the sudden loss of Todd. It really made us realize how connected the body of Christ really is and how real it is when the word says that when one part of the body hurts the whole body hurts and to mourn with those who mourn. We truly felt the pain of his loss. We do have many good memories to fondly think back on. May God continue to strengthen you and cover you with his love and presence.

Dear Jean, Marc, Glen, Scott, Stacy & Lauralie,

I have tried several times to write this and just couldn't until now. I want to express my deepest sympathy to all of you. I know how special you all were to him and his life truly showed that to all of us.

My sympathy to Stacy and Lauralie whom I also have the pleasure of knowing.
I know you both meant so much to him and you are more like brother and sisters instead of cousins.

I had a special bond...
