Todd Boos Obituary

Boos, Todd Douglas

April 2, 1960 - March 30, 2022

Todd Douglas Boos, age 61, died on March 30, 2022 at his home in Omaha. He was 1 of 6 children raised by Doug and Patti Boos in Council Bluffs, IA. Todd graduated from Abraham Lincoln High School in the class of 1978. In his late teens, he wrangled rattlesnakes, which he sold to the Henry Doorly Zoo, to be milked for the making of anti-venom.

Todd was an avid reader with a collection of books that demonstrated his interest in understanding the world around him, and what it could be. His books will be donated to free book outlets in Omaha.

Todd began working for Steril Manufacturing in 1984. He was the Production Manager in their Funeral Tent Division. He was a master tent builder, known for the quality of his work. He was highly valued and respected by the people at Steril Manufacturing and their customers, and Todd held them in equally high regard.

Todd was an artist in metal and wood-working. He made fine, in-laid boxes, carvings, and sculptures. Todd was kind and decent. He was a quiet man with a great sense of humor. He was true to himself and lived life on his own terms.

Todd was preceded in death by his parents, Doug and Patti Boos; and his sister, Carrie Carrithers. He is survived by his sisters, Cyndi (Carrithers) Miller of Tucson, AZ, and Melissa (Boos) Kelly of Elkhart, IN; and brothers, Tom Carrithers of Murfreesboro, TN, and Mark Boos of Aromas, CA; and 9 nieces and nephews.

If you would like to make a donation in Todd's name, please consider your local hospice or pet rescue.

I work with Todd at stereo manufacturing when I was 17 years old his mother was my teacher at Thomas Jefferson high School and he was my friend we used to drink at the turf or at Mike's Westons or even at the Blue Jay. He meant so much to my life is philosophies his knowledge his thirst for knowledge he inspired me and I'd like to think I am where I am today because of men like him so whoever is reading this I'd like you to know he was quirky but he was a very very great man. And my only regret is I didn't get it have another beer with him before he passed. With the most sincerity ... Thomas Donahoo..
