Todd was an incredibly hard worker, someone we could always count on to the his job and do it right. Todd was proud to be a part of Select Sires, and loved what he did. He was always prepared to go above and beyond what was asked of him. Todd was an expert on all things trucks and trailers and loved to teach and spread his knowledge.
He loved life. Todd would beam and smile from ear to ear when he talked about his cars, trucks and motorcycles, his mom, Trixie, Nascar, Sprint Car Races, Midget Races, his flowerbeds, guns, and last but certainly not least, women! He was very proud of his editorial and photography skills, as he should be. He had a wonderful talent.
A genuinely good guy with a heart of gold. He was a funny guy too! Always giving you a hard time, in humor of course. But, Todd was not afraid to tell you how he felt. That’s one of the things that made him who he was. More times than not, you would have to take it with a grain of salt. I swore Todd never wore his hearing aids because he didn’t want to hear what you would say in response to his opinions.
I will forever miss the sound of his keys jangling as he comes up the hallway. His calls, his invites to races, his texts full of pictures of Trixie and showing off his flowers and Nascar publications.
Life doesn’t seem fair in times like these. But I find comfort in knowing that Todd has much more than all the things he loved about life right now. He has his loved ones with him that have since passed on, he has a front row seat looking down on us with Jesus. He will never have another bad day. He will be able to hear everything loud and clear (whether he likes it or not) and he’s sitting right along side his team of bull haulers as they start picking up bulls again. I know he wishes he could be part of it, and he made it known to me how sorry he was that he couldn’t be.
We miss you Todd. You finished early. But you finished well. As fellow bull hauler Sarah said, “We’ll take the road from here”

My condolences to the family, although I did not personally know Todd, I appreciate the football pictures he took of one of my sons who graduated from NU in 2018. He shared it with the Marysville paper and we have it framed. It's something my son will always treasure.
