So sorry he lost his long time battle. I am sure he was a fighter to the end. I knew Todd to be a very interesting good natured person in High school, and am glad to hear he had a full life and loving family. Condolences to those who loved him.

So sad to hear of Todd's passing. In 1978 we met as Freshmen @ UMass and became life-long friends. It was because of Todd that I met my future wife back in 1987 and worked closely with Todd for a decade @ Arthur D. Little. My thoughts and prayers are with his sons and all family members....NJW

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Todd was a wonderful neighbor and playmate. Although many of us have left Sudbury, we will always be connected. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the Lapidas family.
