Dear Linda and Family,



I am so very sorry for your loss. Even though it has been many years since high school, I have thought of you and Todd often, which always brought a smile and some wonderful memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this very hard time. May God watch over you and your family.

I am so fortunate to have had the opportunity to get to know Todd. When I have thought of Todd over time, a very clear image comes to mind of his quiet, confident smile. Always a smile! No mater how tough of a day he may have had. The only change in his expression was the degree of which his smile would grow. It definately got bigger when talking about the Packers, Golf, having a nice cold Guiness and of course, Linda, Ryan, and family. It seemed to me that Todd was eager to try any new thing or experience. He was always excited to tell stories about a new experience in his life. I am a better person having known Todd. I will miss the chances to see his smile in person but, I'll remember it always! God bless you Todd.

Dear Linda and family,

I am so so sorry. Wish there was something I could do or say to ease your pain. What a battle you fought with him. Even though we feel the loss we know he is in a better place and no more pain.
