Dearest Richard, and Sharlene,
I was beyond shocked when I read of Todd's passing! There are no words that can help to ease your pain, but know that I am thinking of you and your family at this terrible time. They say "god" doesn't give us more than we can handle", and you both have certainly been thru alot in the past 15 years. You are good people and I know in my heart that you will get thru this too, but know that if there is "anything" I can do just call me.
Love, Patty Gibbs, danny, and nikki.

We offer our deepest sympathy. When tragedy strikes and takes the life of our loved ones, many cry out with great sorrow. Your tears are not unnoticed by the Creator of Life. Never was it his purpose for our human lives to be taken away. Although your deep pain will not easily disappear, prayer to God will bring comfort to you as you grieve. The Bible assures us God "is healing the broken hearted ones, and is binding up their painful spot." Psalm 147:3

Dear Hathaway Family:
I have such wonderful memories of Todd staying at our house and playing with the girls. It has been so much fun to see Todd grow into such an incredible young man turning into a good brother, husband and father. Wonderful new memories to add to the old. I am so happy everyone was able to get together for Thanksgiving this year. And... I will cherish the memory of that last smile and hug I got for leftover cherry pie. My deepest sympathy to you all on the loss of such a wonderful young man.
All my love always

Richard, Sharlene and family. I am so sad to hear of Todd's passing. I know my mother is too. We both have fond memories, my mom working with you at the school and seeing your boys as elementary students; my memories through the Uptown Dancers. I believe I even taught Todd tapdancing at one time. (I'm sure he was thrilled). Our deepest sympathy. I am sure there is no greater pain than losing a child.
It sounds like he grew up to be a wonderful man, loved by so many and leaving many happy memories. May you find peace and comfort in the positive mark he made on the world. Love and God Bless. Louann Morett-Jaquish and Geraldine Morett.

My love to you all,
