Todd was a very good friend to many people including myself and my husband. He was always picking on me about my height, telling me to stand up when I would talk, even when I was standing up. I will miss that about him among other things. He was always willing to help a friend in need. He will definitely be missed by many, many people. Rest in Peace, Todd. Ride high, my friend. My prayers are with Melva, his children, grandchildren and all of his family.
