My condolences go to the Todd family that held this lady in highest esteem. Beautiful woman and beautiful smile. Always welcoming when I was around. I knew she had to be special. She was so loved by her children and grandchildren. She did her job well on earth and will be rewarded in Heaven. Bless you Todd family and know you were always there for her and she knew it.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.
