When my husband died, Todd was my guardian angel.

I met my best friend because Todd sent me to my first industry show.

After I left Webinc, Todd followed my career as if he was my personal cheerleader. He is right there in the thread I made last month about joining Fleshlight. As ever he was bigging me up and going out of his way to make me feel good about myself.

My heart goes out to his wife and his beautiful kids.

I am forever going to miss my mentor.

Thank you Todd.

Do any of you remember when this industry use to do the "Angel Tree" every Christmas where you adopt a kid and buy them Christmas Presents? I think it was Pattycake that headed it up each year. Most of you don't know this, but Todd and I had a deal that two days before Christmas we would adopt every single child that was left and had not been adopted and I would pick them up gifts and he would pay for the exorbitant shipping fees by letting me put it all on his Fedex account so that it would get delivered on Christmas Day or Christmas Eve. Trust me when I tell you that the Fedex bill was just as much, if not more, than the gifts themselves. He never even cared how much, he just wanted to make sure that the kids got the gifts in time for Christmas.

You can search this board all you want and you will never see that he said a word about this to anyone....as far as I know, PC, STK, and I are the only three that ever knew. This was just the type of guy that he was.

RIP, my friend.
