I am so sorry and shocked. Just saw this. I have worked out at Golds gym William Cannon since it opened and talked to Todd in the gym probably 3-4 times a week. Super nice/friendly guy. I really do not speak to others at the gym when lifting but he was one of maybe 3 people i did just because he was so friendly and outgoing. I always read the newspaper and he would joke with me because I was usually reading the comics. I still am just in shock. Thoughts and prayers to his wife and daughter. We lost a great man in Todd.

Todd you were such a good, good person and you touched lives and made a difference in this world. You were always so kind, warm and inspiring. I will miss your gentle strength. I never be able to go to the gym and not think of you. Youve touched my heart and I will keep your spirit with me forever. You are now in Gods strong and comforting hands. Be at Peace.

Dear Tonia & Brooke,
My husband & I knew Todd for over 17 yrs. He not only helped us with fitness but living a happy, healthy lifestyle. And he was a dependable friend.
Tonia, I remember when Todd started talking about you to us at the gym. He said you were not only beautiful but a pure, sweet angel ( his exact words) whom he was lucky enough to have in his life.
When Brooke was born, his love for her knew no limits. He told us that he never realized he could love someone so very much.

He adored you both, and seemed to love everyone in his family full-heartedly too.

We are terribly sorry about Todds passing, and hope you are holding up as best as you can.

Always keep in mind the the Lord is close to the broken-hearted; gives solace to those most in need of comfort.

With Sympathy,
Lori & Noe

Sadness is in my heart over the loss of this fine family man and friend to many people. He lived his life by helping others and being good to all others he met. Our thoughts, our prayers and our love is for the family. -- Chaplain Larry Todd

My heart goes out to his family. I have known Todd for years from simply just striking up random conversations at the gym. I have been going to golds for about 15 years and everytime I'd run into him after it being a while I'd say to him "Man your still here " He literally is and always will be legendary. It will never be the same walking into a workout. He had such a positive and witty charm and shined so bright. My prayers to you all and may he live on in the beautiful memories you created together.
