Todd was a joy to be around. Even with all his health problems he never complained. He loved IU basketball and football. Todd and Dad attend as many games as they could. Dad and Mom took care of him for 43 years and they taught us to give everything for those you love. It is an example I hope I can live up too. I am so glad that God allowed Todd to be a part of our lives and we all miss him very much!
