My deepest and sincerest sympathy to Todd's family and friends. I was extremely saddened when I learned of his passing just today...while we have lossed a loved one and a very special person, heaven has gained a tremendous and special angel. I went to high school with Todd. He was a very friendly, fun, and down to earth person and a super friend to many. He will be greatly, greatly missed.

I grew up with Todd and Tim. Todd use to pick on me just as much as he picked on his little brother Tim. I have so many memories of our childhood. Now, looking back it, makes me realize how quick we grow up and become what we are today, and how fast it all can go away. I am glad for the memories that Todd gave me, and the time we had as children.

As I am not able to make the viewing or funeral I wanted to offer my sympathy to Todd's loved ones. I know Todd through my Dad who worked with him at Eastern Industries. Every year for the past 10 years or so I looked forward to meeting up with Todd and my Dad at the Sportman's show. We would spend the day sharing our hunting stories, talking of our next planned adventure and laughing. We will miss him. May you find strength and comfort in knowing how many lives he has touched.

We loved our Todd very much and will deeply miss him.
Todd loved to come to Carl's camp in Carsonville. He looked forward to those days he would always call Carl and say "Pap are you ready?" He was a great buddy and hunting partner to Carl and that's what Carl would call him "Bud".
He would make the very best marinade's and could have been a Chef in a Restaursant. He loved to cook at camp.
His most recent joy was his Nancy Hess, we spend many joyful days and nights with them at camp. We recently went on Todd's very 1st trip to New York, which I remember Todd opening his cell phone to call his brother to let him know that he actually made it to New York. We are so very glad we shared that with him.
We have had such wonderful memories with Todd and will cherish the memories.
