We have so many great memories of Todd growing up into such a caring and loving man. His life was far too short. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Diana and Jerry, Tracy, Sabrina and Dodie.

I had the great pleasure and privilege of working with Todd at Teague for over 9 years. He was the social butterfly and resident comedian at every office he visited. I don’t think I ever saw him without a smile on his face. I’m blessed to have met him. Todd you will be truly missed!
I’m so sorry to hear about this. Todd was an amazing person and will be greatly missed. He was the life of the party, team meetings, etc. All my thoughts and prayers to the family during this difficult time.
To all of Todd’s family and friends – we join you to mourn Todd’s passing. Todd holds a very special place in my heart as I had a chance to work closely with him at TEAGUE. His knowledge of both Boeing and TEAGUE were invaluable to me when I first started at TEAGUE.
Todd was special in so many ways. He loved to laugh, loved to tell good stories and loved life. He was kind, generous, and he will be missed.
Rest in peace my friend…

A wonderful nephew and a great man! Todd was a memorable “Ring Bearer” at our wedding. We had many successful hunting trips together and connected me to many great recording artists. He will be missed by all. Our love goes out to Diana, Jerry, Tracy, Sabrina and Dody.

Todd’s warm smile, easy laugh and kind-hearted manner came across within about .8 seconds of meeting him, and never wavered. Got his sense of humor from his dad, who I still remember pulling my leg about shipping all his freight via Yellow, while I was working for CF. (He had no freight) And now I work for Yellow, 30+ years later! Trips to Seattle for all those Vandal-Huskies games were mere excuses to go see Todd. Love Todd, love North Lake Tavern Pizza thanks to him. Who says “Todd” isn’t a Biblical name? It’s in mine: Philippians 1:3.
