Todd Ridgell, born on January 12, 1965, in Baltimore, MD, passed away on December 2, 2025, in Glen Burnie, MD. He was a beloved son, uncle, and friend who enriched the lives of those around him with his warmth and laughter.

Todd was the cherished son of Richard W. and Shirley A. Ridgell of Lewes, DE. He is remembered fondly by his nieces, Heather Hunt (Justin), Megan Supplee (Ryan), and Madison Ridgell (Ethan), as well as his great nephews, Elliott Hunt, Rowan Supplee, and Warren Supplee. Todd also leaves behind his great nieces, Maci, Everleigh, and Bailee Harvey. In addition to his immediate family, Todd is survived by numerous relatives in Deltaville, VA, Tony and Linda Grove, Elizabeth, Troy, and Jarrett Grove and Tracey Ridgell and also a host of close friends who have been touched by his kindness.

Growing up, Todd developed a deep love for various sports, dedicating himself to being a passionate fan of the Baltimore Ravens, holding season tickets for many years, and never missing an opportunity to tailgate with his friends. He also loved cheering for the Baltimore Orioles. His enthusiasm extended beyond the local teams; he also enjoyed the excitement of tennis, NASCAR, and fishing. Many of his happiest moments were spent at the beach, where he found joy in the sun and surf.

Todd is predeceased by his dear brother, Richard Michael Ridgell, whose memory remains a cherished part of Todd’s legacy.

As friends and family reflect on Todd's life, they will remember his infectious spirit and the rich tapestry of memories he wove throughout his years. He will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
