Dear Crutcher Family,
I was so sorry to hear of Mr. Crutcher's passing. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. It brought back great memories that I had not recalled since childhood. How your home on Pepper Drive was always a fun place to hang out, walnut fights in the front yard, fried bologna sandwiches on snow days, and the Charlie's Chips truck pulling up. Then your big move "way out" to Westmoreland. Anyway, it was a great time growing up with you all and I can only surmise that Mr. Crutcher provided the love and foundation for such a wonderful family. All my best.

I'm so sorry to hear that Todd has passed away. I think about the whole family every time I pass Westmoreland, wondering how and where everyone is. I'm sorry it's been so long and I've lost touch. I grew very fond of Todd and Carolyn as I spent as much time at their house as my own for 3 1/2 years in the early 80's. Also, before that family get togethers on derby day for several years when I was younger. My condolences to the family.

Carolyn, Ben, Donna, Greg and Julie,
I am deeply saddened by the passing of "Todd". There are so many memories of him that I would not try to list them here. Your family seemed like a second family to me and, of course, Mr. Crutcher, a second father. Every snowfall, I miss the bobsledding through the neighborhood, every spring the baseball on your "field, and every fall, football. I brag to others that I knew a man that helped develop the "wheel" on the IBM typewriter, as if I could claim him as my own father. May God bless all of you, in your loss.
