We are so sorry for your loss. We met Todd in January of 2005, after the loss of our beloved golden retriever, 'Molly'. He and his family had a litter of golden retriever puppies, and we were fortunate to find our "Tess" through Todd. He was gracious in allowing us to visit his home, and had taken such care with his pets that we were so happy to take "Tess" home with us to fill the hole that was left when 'Molly" died. A kind soul, with a love for animals, Todd should not be forgotten - in fact, he lives on, with our "Tess". May Todd rest in peace.
