To Todd's family , I extend my heartfelt sorrow during this time of overwhelming loss. I had not talked to Todd in quite some time. Too long. He was my best friend in high school and college. I have so very many fond memories; our cross country trip.. Trip to the beach. The summer between high school and college at the disco. Cruising in his Ford mustang listening to fleetwood mac on his 8-track. Todd will be missed. He was a good friend.

Now, my boy's "Uncle Todd" is their guardian angel.
From the first few days of Brent's life, as Todd
looked on him with wonder, as he celebrated, Kevin's
birth and growth, and they rejoiced his own birthdays,
at the "Birthday Table", he will always hold a special
place in all our hearts. We will miss you "Uncle Todd!"
