He was a huge Wisconsin sports fan, especially the Packers, Brewers, and Badgers. In his spare time, he enjoyed playing slow pitch softball, shooting pool, and bowling. Everyone who knew Todd would agree, his greatest joy in life was his children. When they were young, he loved teaching them how to play sports and tried to never miss a game.
