Todd Whitney Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Davis-Watkins Funeral Homes & Crematory - Fort Walton Beach on Aug. 25, 2025.
Todd Whitney was born on April 15, 1965, in Houma, Louisiana, the beloved youngest of nine siblings. From an early age, Todd's sharp intellect and boundless curiosity set him apart. He went on to earn a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from Louisiana State University, launching a distinguished career in the semiconductor industry as a highly respected failure analysis specialist.

In 1989, Todd married the love of his life, Kitty Harris. Together, they built a life rooted in love, purpose, and innovation. Their shared vision led to the founding of the Infusion Network, a medical business that revolutionized patient care and left a lasting impact on the healthcare industry.

Later in life, Todd and Kitty were blessed with their greatest joy-son Max, who is now 21 and following in his father's footsteps by studying electrical engineering at the University of Colorado in Boulder. Todd's devotion to Max knew no bounds. He was a dedicated, wise, and loving father who instilled in his son the values of perseverance, humility, and integrity. He could not have been prouder of the man Max is becoming.

Even after retiring from the medical industry, Todd's entrepreneurial spirit flourished. He channeled his creativity into new ventures, founding family entertainment centers Blast and Thrills and the beloved ice cream stores Moolala Ice Cream. In every endeavor, Todd was more than a leader-he was a mentor. He empowered his teams, encouraged growth, and inspired every person to be their best. To know Todd was to be changed by his wisdom, strength, and unwavering support.

Todd is survived by his cherished wife, Kitty, and his adored son, Max. He also leaves behind his eight loving siblings-David, Sandra, Debra, Kevin, Randy, Laurie, Connie, and Jamie-and their spouses. He was a beloved uncle to Brett, Chad, Derek, Hayley, Alisha, Andrea, Lorie, Kelsey, Chase, Dan, Lacie, Tyler, and Robert and their spouses.

To Kitty's family, Todd was not just an in-law, but a foundation of strength-a steady, compassionate presence whose wisdom and kindness touched them deeply. He will forever remain a pillar of their lives.

Todd lived with unshakable moral fiber and a commitment to health, fitness, and nutrition, driven by his deep love for Kitty and Max. His character was defined by humility, integrity, and a quiet confidence born of experience and understanding beyond his years.

Todd's legacy is one of love, mentorship, innovation, and unwavering devotion to family. His spirit will live on in all who had the honor of knowing him.

God bless our Todd. We love and miss him dearly.

It is with gratitude that we mourn the passing of Todd and the fine example he set for our grandson, Braden Ray. What a wonderful opportunity to work with such an outstanding person and learn so much about business, decision making and integrity in the work place and life itself. We will keep Kitty snd Max in our hearts and prayers.

Dear Kitty and Max,

I was heartbroken to hear of Todd´s passing. There was truly no one else like him. Although our relationship began through business, I quickly came to feel that we were friends.

As brilliant as Todd was, he always took time to listen and would make decisions only after thoughtful consideration. I will never forget the first time we met-he told me, very frankly, that in time he would know more than I did about the family entertainment industry... and he was right.

What I will remember most are our conversations about his home life-his trips to Colorado, his deep pride in Max, and the way he spoke about Kitty with such admiration and love. His devotion to you both was always evident.

I cannot express the depth of my sorrow. I know your pain must be overwhelming, but I hope in time the memories of Todd will bring you comfort and carry you forward. I truly loved and admired him, and I will miss him greatly.

With deepest sympathy,
David Capilouto

Todd was an amazing person and mentor. I am blessed to have known Todd for many years and also worked for him at Blast. My daughter and I were truly blessed the day that Todd came into our lives. He was always there anytime we needed something and let a guiding hand. He will be truly missed and loved
