It's rare that you meet someone in this sport with the level of sustained enthusiasm that Todd had for the sport. What a shock your going to be missed my friend. I raise my glass to a great skydiver. Blue skies forever, DA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites fff3 0 #10 August 9, 2008 My best memory of Todd's last day was watchting him pack up one of our newer jumpers big slipperies just to do something nice, and asking me who's rig it was and saying it was a bear to pack. Doing a solid for a stranger when that person wasn't watching; that's just plain kind, decent and cool.

It portrays is the cheesy grin he always had after landing, regardless of what kind of jump and regardless of how the jump went. I will forever love him.

Every year at Quicy, then Rantoul, Todd was the constant bigger than life presence in the organizer tents. He was the kind of guy you could see only at a boogies each year, but it was like you knew him your whole life. An easy friend. He was my image of what an athlete in this sport could aspire to, ever since I started out. Rest in peace brother. Blue skies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites cruisers2 0 #22 August 9, 2008 I met Todd Thursday. So did my son. Todd took my son aside and spent 20-30 minutes discussing turns and other things associated with a D jump. I also watched him coach a couple of A jumpers. Note: he wasn't jumping with these guys (or us); he was just helping and imparting his great knowledge and experience to us newbies. Wow. What a guy. Blue Skies Todd. Thanks for entering our lives... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites wildfan75 1 #23 August 9, 2008 Do you know who took that picture? It is Todd's background picture on his computer. He loved that picture.
