Todd was a Field Service Engineer for Mass Spectrometers, and never met anything he could not fix, repair, or create with his own hands. He loved adrenaline! In his younger days raced motorcycles, and even was a motorcycle racing instructor in New York. Todd was involved in an online racing community, racing with people throughout the world. To know Todd was to know that he absolutely loved mountain biking, and you could find him not only on the trails in Kansas City, but throughout the United States. He was the absolute best father, husband, and friend. Todd never knew a stranger, and everyone that met him loved him. He always poured into people, leaving everyone and everything better than he found them. He loved his family, and was able to spend the last 10 years with the love of his life, Annette. Words can not express how much he will be missed by so many throughout the world.
